• Why are you pushing me away?
    I feel so trapped.
    Like a claustrophobic in a tight corner,
    or a goldfish swimming in a small glass bowl.
    All I want is a warm embrace.
    A small spark of hope that maybe,
    I am wanted.
    I want to be that small infant that you once loved.
    I want to be that smart, talented, amazing girl,
    that you wish I was.
    I want to be a family again.
    I want to be your pride and joy.
