It seems I was born just 18 years ago The truth is I have been left In the dark for so long I don't know my parents Some might think thats odd But it's true Yes I have the perfect home Yes I have people that care about me But it's not the same I don't know to explain But being adopted was the greatest thing That ever happened to me But I can't look back and think Of what might have been It's too late now Because you are The parents I never had I just made up this piece in my head. Most of which is true. I was adopted 18 years ago. I am happy about where I live, but it isn't the same. I can only hope that my life will get better. Please critique, but keep in mind this is how I feel. Chel "True friends stab you in the front" "Never say 'I Love You' unless you mean it" |

Dear Chel, I have had these feelings many times myself, and I believe any piece is wonderful if it comes from the heart, and I can clearly see this one has. Awsome poem and continue the work. The law of harvest is to reap more than you sow.Sow a habit and you reap a character.Sow a character and you reap a destiny |

I thought that this was nice. I think it's great that you were adopted into a nice family and was taken care of. Great poem. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

I wouldn't touch it. That's right, everyone! I won't throw the whole "do a format" speech that I am so notorious for! Not here! It is great how it is. So keep at it. And good luck. ~Allan Stupidity makes the world go around...and people like us laugh. ~~Elizabeth, to Allan |
