poetry I have written: 'Someone'

                              Someone
When I was a year old Someone held me tight, Someone told me I Love you, so don't give up the fight.
When I was 3 years old and someone said 'come here', some showed me what it meant to live in fear.
When I was 6 years old, I was constantly unwell, someone took my hand and told me what to do and told me not to tell!
When I was 8 years old Someone held me close, Someone wiped my tears away and told me to go play.
When I was 50 years old Someone left me on my own and heart was turned to stone.
Now that I am 55, I have still not fully grown because the Somene who held me tight, forgot to teach me How to fight!

Today fighting is almost useless. The values have changed and power is the theme of what importance is all about. There are those in power who use it to abuse whomever because they have a personality disorder. Realising that you did nothing wrong frees you to say the same to others going through what you went through. And they\'ll listen knowing you already walked in their shoes. Governing adults of children can be horrible persons sometimes. But once out from under their authority the EX child has the power to seek those he/she can trust with his/her life. When such a person or two is found ecstacy is the final result. And ecstacy can be around the corner. :) Thank God for the marvelous internet!
