Title: Life in a Different Light

Poem: As I look at days gone by
I see my life in a different light
I no longer feel used or abused
but I am a little confused

I look and look for people who understand
but run into walls that will never stand
Sometimes I see myself as a survivor
In the past I was a victim
but now I'll never ever let them
put me down or convict me

I'm strong even though I've been wronged
I embrace life with open arms
I'll continue on as long as I'm strong
With satisfaction it won't be long...
