She
was a Christian
It
was at board School , I hated her , an extremely
pretty girl , but she was a christain . She was
so sure of herself , I felt inadequate , she was
happy , I was annoyed , irritated that she felt
somehow she was superior to the rest of us . who
was she trying to convert the whole world ..
She
was a hypocrite , she had a boyfriend ,surely
that was not allowed . She wore no makeup , she
had a serenity about her and she smiled a lot .
She came from a close knit family , she was much
loved .
I
envied her, yet it seemed she would not befriend
one like me , each time I said hello ,when our
eyes met , she pretended not to hear.
All
I ever wanted was to belong , all I want is for
Mom to love me , she hated me , she hit me and
bit me , Iwas her enemy . Why couldnt I be like
this christian girl who had everything ,
including the love of her mother . Why does
mother hate me so?
School
was my refuge , my best place in the world,
where I could pretend I came from a loving home
. I lied , I acted , I bribed people with gifts
so they could like me.I knew I was not loved ,
whenever there was an argument they called me
crazy spotty , so I knew my freinds were as
flaky as me .
I
laid in my bed one night on dirty sheets that I
couldn't be bothered to wash and I cried as the
lights went out for the night .
She
came to my bed , she laid beside me like a
friend and said I accepted Jesus because I
needed help .LikeI care?I thought She closed her
eyes ,I knew she was crying perhaps she was
praying too.
Enough said this poem is for you Sue
Words are Powerful .
I was frustrated and very frightened
I'd sunken into great depths of despair
Your words lifted me
Hot tears flooded my soul
tears of courage and hope
your kindness lifted me
Hope joined with love
kindness and peace in
warm embrace
I was lifted beacuse you were kind
Your kind words touched my soul
