Edgar Allan Poe <br /> <br />My genius mind destroys everything around me. <br />One moment it can be a blessing or a curse. <br />Sometimes I get a feeling someone is following, a banshee. <br />My mind reflects on morbid images or far worse. <br /> <br />The presence of a sweet charming mother remains with me. <br />Even long after her death, she is still here. <br />So small watching her pass is something I will never forget to the highest degree. <br />I will not let this tear me apart while I’m still left, I will persevere. <br /> <br /> <br /> The feeling of being abandon and alone. <br />Went away when I met the one who wished to take care of me now. <br />Being there made me feel free, but soon came the cyclone. <br />Leaving me without her making me ask why and how. <br /> <br /> <br />I can’t think of any reason why I should belong to a family. <br />Until I met Virginia and Mariah, they have become my one solid family. <br /> <br />© Lindsey Westenhouser<br /><br />Lindsey Westenhouser<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/edgar-allan-poe-2/
