Poetry

In The Spotlight

Please, come on

All eyes on me

Never given attention by family

I need the spot light

I want to be seen

Just look at me

My trauma is invalid

My needs don't matter

My voice is hollow

Please hear me 

Please know me

My sadness is a hurricane

The outside only cares when it's the aftermath

But other than that

I'm alone

Please, come on

All eyes on my

Never given attention by family

I want the spotlight

I need to be seen

Just look at me!
