I remember <br />hiding, crying, <br />cowering, screaming, <br />begging God to end my life <br /> <br />I remember <br />my disappointment <br />in waking each and every day <br />and how I cursed his name, in anger <br /> <br />I remember <br />so many years <br />wasted in despair <br />as I died a little each day <br /> <br />I remember <br />the day I was freed <br />badly frightened I was <br />that there was nothing left of me <br /> <br />I remember <br />falling in love <br />and finally feeling <br />that I truly am alive <br /> <br />I remember <br />what I was before <br />thankful for what I am <br />and for oh so much more <br /> <br />I will remember <br />the life I have been shown <br />that was given me by those I love <br />It is all of you I will forever remember<br /><br />Angela Davis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/remember-4/
