nancy dark writes poems abut being herself
 
 
 
  
   i sit in my room 
and lift up my voice 
i have to be me 
i have no other choice
  
i have had many lives 
i have been many things 
i have been locked in boxes 
and pulled with strings
   
i have been hung on trees 
and dropped from skies 
been drowned in rivers 
and baked in pies
   
     
     i have been poked with sticks 
and given thousands of tests 
and always been told 
it was all for the best
   
the lives keep on coming 
like raindrops in spring 
and yet through them all 
i ask only one thing
   
is it asking too much 
to wish to be free 
for just one life 
    in eternity?
