Poetry Influenced me
Without poetry
I would be dead
Because I kept hearing voices inside my head
No one cared about the pain I carried
Everyone would tell me to keep my feelings buried
No one would understand the humiliation I felt
No one didn't understand that I needed help
I felt humiliated when people picked on me
I didn't have anyone to run to
So, I expressed my emotions in poetry
This poem is about:
Me
My community
My country
Our world
