The Real Me
By Anthony Butler
The real me needs love and acceptance,
except this fact escapes most people’s conscience.
I’m helpless to avoid the stigma attached to my persona.
Yet, I implore all to get to know the person.
My situation can’t worsen, but circumstances
dictate I convey the fact that
I’m not worthless.
Courtrooms, lawyers, wardens, officers
all have a limited opinion based on
history. However, history is only a
glimpse at a time gone by, not what’s
in my mind
My time, my heart, my goals is two-fold:
live and breathe a better life each and every day
and to find a way to show the real me!
