Where Were You?

I cried into my pillows
Cursed the day I was born
Thought of ending my life
Where were you?

I called all day and night
I lost my patience
My believe in God diminished
Where were you?

I nursed hunger
I wished I were dead
I was broken
Where were you?

I wrote poems
I told stories
I drowned in anger
Where were you?

I worked myself up
Trying to figure out why
The reason I was unwanted
Where were you?

I was bad in love
I hurt innocent beings
My love turned hate
Where were you?

I gave up on my dreams
Ink was the only thing I got left
To tell stories and pour out my heart
Where were you?

Now I see the light
Now I glow like a worm
Now you see me shine
Where were you?

I don’t want you
Go back to your place
I’m okay alone
Where were you?
