I Am Poem by Katherine Bryce

I am free.
Free from fear.
Free to be me.
Free from pain and hate.

I am loved.
Loved by those I love.
I am needed.
Needed by those I need.

I belong.
Belong with those who treat me right.
Belong with those there for me.
Belong with those I'd never forget.

I desire.
Desire a life of joys.
Desire a future bright and strong.
Desire a family to love.

It all seems so strange.
How all these connect.
And how it all starts.
With being freed.
