Birthplace
Into the shadows of sorrow and despair I was born
Baptized through the stinging fire of abuse and neglect,
My only companion loneliness at my side
Steered me into the darkness
Away from the judging stares and
Stabbing jabs of my captors,
My family,
My loved ones
To suffer indignities
Where no one could hear me cry
For the help that never came
