Forgotten Poem by Michelle Dickson

I could laugh right now
My life is not what it was
I am not who I was

I looked up to my sister
but she looks down on me
I guess this is how it was meant to be

Everytime I would think of something good
She would always put me down
but I wouldn't let that get me down

My attitude back then
was cheerful & bubbly
but that would soon change

The more I was put down
the bigger the mask got
until finally I was lost
and I forgot

I forgot who I am
but not who I was
and how I wish I was
