Reflection

A Poem

By Shamar WardPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

I remember the cold and lonely days of my childhood.

I remember all the kids who used bully me

I remember some of my family members harsh words.

I remember all the birthdays i never got celebrate, not even a happy birthday or any acknowledgement what so ever.

I remember being poor

I remember being alone all the time with dark thoughts creeping into my mind

The thing i remember most from my childhood was a boy with a purple hat

He always seemed to be happy

He walked up to me and held his hand out

When i shook his hand

He Told me are eyes were the same

After he said that i looked into his eyes and they were just as cold as mine

He was my reflection
