| "Knowing What I Know" | ||||||||||
| Knowing what I know, It is hard to live this way. Separated from my younger siblings. It was easy when we were Together. I could watch them, Take care of them, Comfort them. But now, Knowing what I know, I rejoice each time I see them. My heart breaks each time we part. But I must stay strong For my mother, For my father, For my very special brother and sister. But also for myself. Because what scares me most, Is what I don't know. |

| Note: This was the first free verse poem I've ever written. It is special to me because it expresses my emotions as they are. No tweeking, no touch-ups. This is what I feel. | ||||||||||
