Can I.......? Poem by Alicia Roseberry

can i be loved?
can i be hugged?
can i be embraced,
without being thought a discrace?
can i be listened to,
without being hit?
can i speak my mind,
with people who will ever get it?
can i have a day pass,
where i dont get passed,
and get called names?
can i have time pass,
without peope playing games,
with my emotions getting trashed?
Can my life go by,
without my mother continuing to smash,
smash my head in every chance she gets?
Will I Ever Get Over It?
