Shadow
by S.S.
Shame she felt when she got pregnant
Hate in the town’s people’s eyes
Admiration she felt toward her first Child
Divorce she got at 16
Overwhelmed with grief and pain
Wrench with guilt she killed herself
I try to speak out, but courage left my side
The Words I once knew never come out
The pain inside I never show it
But I stood my ground knowing one-day
I will finally get the courage to speak out
Speak Out
