PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I

Am Chinese/Australian And Was Born In Lush Marin

Grew Up Feeling Rich, The Third Of Four Children



I

Felt Like The Black Sheep And Was Difficult At Best

My Childhood Was Scarred, Falling From The Nest



I

Was Bounced From School to School To Be Kept In Line

My Parents Were Divorced, We Pretended All Was Fine



I

Rebelled, Fought, Struggled And Even Ran Away

No One Could Understand Me Or Listened To What I’d Say



I

Graduated, Tried College, Still Desperate To Fit In

Partied Hard, Did Drugs, Any Type Of Sin



I

Grew Up, Was Married Young And Figured All Was Well

Witnessed Birth, Fell Out Of Love And Got A Taste Of Hell



I

Bounced Back, Found My Inner Self, A Reason For Another Breath

Reckless Abandon, Poor Judgment, A Hand Gave Way To Death



I

Wept, Yelled And Searched Again Deep Into My Soul

Moved Away, Pulled Away, A Shut In Like A Mole



I

Woke One Day Feeling Stronger With a Purpose To Go On

Well Adjusted, More Relaxed, Not Feeling Like A Pawn



I

Wonder Now With All My Years If My Past Was Just A Mold

New Beginnings, New Relations, What Will My Future Hold
