Do Not Blame Me... Poem by Ms. Anika Martinez

Do not blame me
For your failure
Do not blame me
For your desires
Do not blame me
For your pass, present or future
Do not blame me
When you wake up alone
Do not blame me
When you have know one to talk too
Do not blame me
For your shame and guilt of self
Do not blame me
For walking away from you
Do not blame me
When you look into the mirror and cry
Do not blame me
For not knowing the person you see
Do not blame me
For putting self first
Do not blame me
For walking away with my head held high
Do not blame me
For seeing the light ahead
Do not blame me
For following a different path
Do not blame me
For all the broken pieces in your life
Do not blame me
For you!
