"My True Self"
Throughout my normal childhood
A silhouette in shadows stood
Beside me as I walked along
The narrow path. It was wrong,
They said, to talk to strangers, so
I acted like I didn’t know.
For forty years, that forced rejection
Blinded me to my own reflection.#poetry #poet #poetrycommunity #innerself #darkside #innerstruggle #poetictruth #beherenow #dreams #hopes #fears #symbolism #irony
