well here goes nothing

Hey. My name is Naomi and i'm 13 and well yeah this week so far hasn't exactly been well. It's breaking me down actually. Breaking me down so hard that yeah i tried some things but now i'm in a head space to where i'm just very lost, confused, tired, hungry all time but can't ever actually eat, and hurt yk? And well i haven't been able to sing without the tune turning sad and into tears. I haven't been able to dance without telling myself that i'm not as pretty or as fit as the other girls. I'm always scared to leave the house because this girl who makes my life a living *** might fight me or even worse. I'm scared to talk to my foster dad because he just screams at me or tears me down while my foster mom coddles me and is always making an effort to be there for me but just it doesn't feel right. And so they are always fighting about me and i feel like i'm breaking up their family. Anyways yeah i'm hurting and i figured that songs and poems are the same thing kinda. So if i can't sing fully without it getting too depressing i can share a poem i wrote. Now i'm not good at writing poems but hey let's give it a shot.

It's hard to look in the mirror and see what I see

A girl that's broken and lost

A girl who's soul is just longing to be free

A girl who can barely see the light


As she gets ready to fake a smile all day her heart breaks a little more

She is scared to show the person that's hurting

She is scared to let them look through that door.


And as she walks home deep into her sorrow

She hears her insides telling her to just stop being sad

But she can't instead she just continues walking playing with her hair

She want to ask the universe " Why must I suffer? it's just not fair!"

But instead she trudges to her room and prays that she'll feel better tomorrow


But as the weeks progress she start to see

That she may never be free and she accepts that

It's sad I know but that's just how I feel

The End.

Thank you for your time

Thank you, Naomi, for sharing your moving life story, and this wonderful, beautiful poem.

You have great talent, and an amazing attitude of going forward no matter what, even if you are feeling so bad.

For example, even feeling that bad, you sat to write this beautiful, moving poem, and posted it here, telling us your life situation along the way.

Even your language, the way you tell things, is one of defiance, not of submission to the misfortunes you might be suffering.

I love that attitude of yours.

Thank you for so much honesty, so much beauty, and such moving words.

I really, really hope that you feel better and better this new year, and the next, and forever.

You are a gem of a person, with so much to give...

I am certain that as you grow, you will become a powerhouse, a great artist in any domain you choose.

Because you have the sacred fire within.

Getting there is only a matter of practice and time.

Thank you again, Naomi.

Always yours,

Marcelo.
