Poem: A memory from the past
A Memory From the Past
I catch the butterfly and hold it in my hand
I feel tears rolling down my cheeks and I dont understand
Why I cry for something I cannot control
Why I laugh when I am sad and never tell a soul
Because of memories from the past
My life of going from a cute little girl to an ugly outcast
I suffered so many taunts from my peers when I was in elementary
I never had the same friend for one year and for the popular contest I was never a entry
In third grade my brother Tim only ever called me a *****
And the next year my other brother; school he would just ditch
Tim followed in his shoes
And at school and home I continued to recieve their verbal abuse
And the next year I discovered I was an adoptee
And started to notice how on all important topics my family disagree
The last memory in my puzzle was the fact of a new girl at school
We became friends and slowly my story unfolded and her reaction was supercool
She didnt question me on it but she helped me and actually seemed to care
I had thoughts of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ when I went into a complete state of despair
But she gave me a great book and made me read it and never again did I frown
For she saved me whether she knows it or not that she gave me hope that I wore like a crown
I released the butterfly from my hand and let it fly back to its friend
A smile spread over my face and the tears vanished as I watch its wings extend
As it took off I followed it with Yesenia by my side
I could never thank her enough for she had saved me when I died
Author notes
I have many more memories but I tryed to put the lesser problems of my past in the poem and to mention my closest friend ever who I hope will not move away at the end of this year for we have are bad and good but I can't thank her enough for saving me just by reacbhing out with a book of kids who had people who loved them and stopped them from commiting ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ it made me feel as if someone actuallt cared and ni matter what happens I will never forget Yesenia
