'Handmade'
Write a poem that could have this as its title.
Handmade
My handmads trauma
Made just for me
oh how lucky I should be
To be given a gift so unique
Beautiful with the makings of a rainbow
Red for the blood
Purple for the bruises
Blue for the tears
Green for the drug misuses
My handmade trauma
Made just for me
I Dream of the nights when he’d come come
That’s how I know what abuse is
And all the fabricated lies and excuses
The only gift my parents ever gave me
But it guess it has its uses
My handmade trauma How lucky
Made just for me
Even though it’s too much for me
I will not share
You couldn’t even imagine the things Ives seen
Not even in you scariest dreams
