The Girl in the Pink Blanket
by: Kaki

Years, time has passed me by and all for what?
For fearing what I am, for not embracing it,
for denying my gift, for fear I would not conform
not fit in, so I denied who I was.
Denied the desire to change the designation
that was assigned to the little girl in the pink blanket.
Years, time has passed me by
that I would let a man lead me
but never would I follow
that I could keep up the appearance
of being what I was supposed to be
never to be satisfied,
but not knowing to seek satisfaction.
Years, and now time stands still
having stumbled upon the answer
to a question I didnt know to ask
hearing the soft cries of need
and knowing that this
this is what I was waiting for
smiling into a face that is filled
with trust that I am in control.
Years more to come
finally being free to be Me
they never realized the girl
the one in the pink blanket
was crying out not to be fed
but to be freed.
