My life through poetry
The snow glistened in the beauty of the morning
The day was filled with joy and new beginnings
A small girl with long brown hair sits outside of the courtroom
She was ready to start over
Her life had been an influx of chaos
She was tired and ready to ready to rest in the safety of a new home
She feels the pain and reality of rejection
She that life from now on will be a struggle and will not always be easy
Two adults stood in the courtroom, wearing their hearts on their sleeves
They both have not had the easiest life
They had a son with special needs and they had another daughter
Yet they were willing to take this random little girl into their life
Little did they know that the package that they were about to receive was broken
Outside was a healthy 7 year old little girl on the inside was still the abuse and neglect of her past that tear her to pieces
The first year was easy they showered her in gifts and other materialistic possessions
Inside there was a contorted mess
She was withholding food in her bedroom
She thought they that they were going to hurt here
Year after years she grew up and soon became a teenager
She started caking on makeup and straightening her hair
She became more difficult to perceive
She starts to camouflage and become a new person
She is no longer the sweet little girl waiting outside the courtroom
She was stubborn and became so troubled that they could no longer deal with her so they sent her away to boarding school
She thrived there and loved it she got taken out and went back home
She rehearsed all the lines and knew all the answers
At first life was great she did well in school and did as she was told
Little did they know that she was struggling harder than ever she had an eating disorder
She had the lowest self confidence
She got sent away again
She was sent to a small town in Colorado
At first she hated it but, then she met friends and she found a home their
She moved to a different school where she was welcomed with opened arms the school was like a family
