Your parents rights terminated, said
the judge as he staired into my eyes.
What did this mean ?
How was an 11 year old supposed to
understand this?
My heart felt like it was torn
from my body.
I moved from place to place
confused and broken like a bone.
I felt like a Piece of trash
being moved from
can to can
yard to yard
landfill to landfill
I was lonely and lost in the woods of the world.
Someone tried to break me, but I’m still standing, standing Strong.
Now I stand before you a SUCCESSFUL MAN.
I am on the verge of earning my college degree.
I live on my own.
I have a job that I enjoy.
Someone tried to break me , but I’m still standing, Standing Strong.
