Underwater
My hands are underwater
I am in a never ending storm.
It erases
fingerprints.
No one will know
Who i am.Who i was.
I don’t recall who I used to be.
How can they say the past doesn’t define you
When the past,
It built you like a lego house.
Mine,
Destroyed.
My home.
Suppose to be safe
Where I learned what
survival was.
The darkness,the fittest,
It consumed me and
It consumed the laughs
I used to hear. Those laughs
when i was 7.
In my hands,
Dark .I see through with holes.
Never ready
For the punches thrown
When they were 11.I never trained,
never taught to deal with the unstoppable.
Nor the unfaithful.
Only trained by a father
Love was only her father
Mother,
was too busy blaming, not watching blooming.
Not watching
me grow.
