Never Was (poem)

Its hard to live in a world

That doesn't want me

All my life 

I've been pushed aside

Thrown out, discarded

Called names

Used, abused

Blamed for everything

Yet I'm suppose to be strong

Stand on my own two feet

Take care of myself

And believe in something

That I've never seen
All the while I feel empty
Like there's something missing

I feel like I live in a cage

With no air to breathe

And its always dark

Yet, these days

There is a light that shines through

A glimmer of rainbow colors

A silhouette of an image

But its just an illusion

A sliver of something that could have been

But never was
