Self Poem by Joel Anonymous

Born to light without a thought
An incredible machine that’s still untaught

Raised the way others make me be
Not quite them I’m what I see

Always thought Id be a shining star
How can it be Ive come this far

A loss within means a loss without
Searching my soul to find only doubt

Trace the steps of this so called life
The past presents my future strife

Never to late to find the key
Only way to discover me

Proud of what has been set in stone
Signifies to others that I have grown

Stand before you, who I am
I know myself, I am a man
