Light


14 years old,
a child to behold,
as well as the rest of my life,


35 weeks later,
and suddenly,
I was a creator.


5 pounds,
1 ounce,
a miracle I held in my arms,
for the very first time.


Bullied.


Doubted.


I never once thought,
I would be who I am today.


A mother.


A graduate.


Light has shun,
down,
 a dark,
dreary,
terrifying
path.


A path that is my life.


I have now seen the light,
of where I need to go.


Because of this light,
there is not a place,
I will seize to go.
