Before Us Poem by Abednigo Pitso

I was an innocent boy who knew nothing about love
I was pain free
Stress free
So happy and full of joy.

I knew nothing about depression
Heart breaks.

Feeling so lonely
Disappointments
I was just myself and I.

I knew nothing about hatred!
Being selfish
I had no reason to be obsessed with anyone
I had no anger issues.

I was just perfect version of myself
Before us
(I) was never a problem only (US)
had problems.
