Scattered Poem
A Poem by Jenni Bailey
Even in my darkness, I’m someone’s child
Even in my light, I’m a beautiful wild
I’m scattered like the thoughts in my mind
I’m random like a unusual, historical find
I laugh at absolutely nothing
I cry about that something
This world gets my middle finger
My world, because I get triggered
Going from one topic to another
Conversations that smother
Deep love, deep hate
Not one for the Pearly Gate
Tuck me into bed, hyped
Blankets on, I need tears wiped
This is me
Let it be!
