By Myself Poem by Brenda Caldera

Keeping the memories of who I am
Wondering why I feel like this
Roaming the dusty trails
Seeking for a new beginning,

Followed by my ambitions of recruiting my wounds
Bleeding out the pain in me
Leaving the shadow of my bandage
Hanging under me,

Crying out the green poison that surrounds me
Floating and destroys my passion
Of becoming something that I can never be
Regretting the scars that hunt me over again,

I look forward and I can see
The light that shines above me
Unscrambling my unique ways of desiring
The only thing that keeps me living,

Holding the only object
That makes me feel worthless
Rooting for watching my sorrow overcome
The only person that I am now
