Through My Eyes Poem by precious dennis

Through My Eyes



Before I became who I am,
I was a young girl trying to stand,
So who am is a 15 year old gir, l
Trying to make a living in this cold and mixed up world,
Who was is a young girl being abused by her dad,
Never growing up and always being bad,
Running around getting mad easily and having low self-esteem,
Going through homes where nobody loved me,
See I'm not the same girl as I was before,
The one to cry more and more,
There were so many times I wanted to run away,
But then I told myself I'd be okay,
I would rather give than receive,
Because I know good things will come to me,
Sometimes I'm just left here standing here in the freezing cold,
I need to find my way back from this broken road,
My life's been a journey but I'm getting through it all,
After all I've been through I'm still standing tall,
Keeping my head held high,
Staying on the safe side so it won't happen a second time,
Having to go through three years of being abused,
Being in relationships where I was just used,
I always use to sit in a dark silent room,
Just feeling pain and unwanted gloom,
Most of the time I don't have any friends or anyone to turn to,
If you look through my eyes you'll see what I've been through,
How I'm trying not to get hurt again,
How usually it's hard to trust people and let them in,
Especially ones who care,
The ones who have a sympathetic ear,
When I'm hurt you can hear my heart crack,
Now it's all in the past and I will never look back,
Because if I do iI will probably turn into salt,
But I know most of it was not my fault,
ShouId I believe you when you say that you'll be there,
Should I really just give in because I know you care,
See because now that it's all in the past I can finally follow my dreams, . Andbe who I wanna be

I wrote this to be in a play but the part of the play where we were supposed to read our personal stories was taken out so I never got to share it. This is my favorite poem that I've written thus far and i would really like it if u commented on it. Thnx :)
