Shaunie Jarrett Poems

When somebody loved me
I thought life was beautiful
Everything is as it seems
'Cause life is such a miracle
...

A child born into the darkness of this crummy world
Searching for the place she can feel whole
Where she feels that she truly belongs
Searching for the love she never found at home
...

My heart is broken
My soul is black
Now i just wish
I could take it all back
...

Welcome to my life
The pain and the hurt
The blood that's seeping
Through my white shirt
...
