As a child in foster care I had so much trauma in my life and you name it I’ve gone through it I’m now 17 looking at a couple of years in juvie. I wrote this poem down in juvie. I didn’t get to go home on my court date in April, so I came back to my cell and started crying and I wrote all my feelings out. I got to go home on house arrest and now I’m sending this out. I suffer from depression anxiety trauma and ptsd. But this poem isn’t just for me I wrote as an apology to my step mom who took me in at the age of 7 and she was the best mom I’ve ever had and always will be growing up i gave her so much trouble in life and so many troubled arguments and situations. So yeah I wrote this poem down and I wrote plenty more so thank you and if your suffering from the same thing as me just know you can fight it I love you guys.
