I wish I could say I have had the perfect life,
But that would be a lie,
I wish I could say that I have been the perfect daughter,
But that would be a lie,
I wish I could say I always followed what I knew I should do,
But that would be a lie,
I wish I could tell you I followed God,
But that would be a lie,
One thing I tell you is true,
Is how much I have grown,
Who I use to be,
And who I am today,
Are 2 different people,
I am learning to live for God,
I am learning to obey,
I am learning to do what I know is right.

    Your profile is so sad for one so young, but perhaps your youth will give you a headstart for "straightening things out" and recovering from all of the pain. The best part about being as young as you are is that your possibilities are limitless. You are stronger than even you know; the courage it takes to put your life's story up here on AP is a testimonial to that strength. Rely on that strength, draw on it, pull from it. You have chosen the best form of therapy, here with poetry. Many people will comment on "rules" and "forms" and "verse" and "rhyme" and on and on, but I believe that all poetry is a creative outlet and should be subject to individual interpretation less than critiques; particularly in this type of forum. Just let all that pain flow into your pen and then drip right out onto paper. You have a beautiful soul . . . let it grow. Blessings,
    FaeRae
