Poem: My Potential

Once I was nothing
Non-existent in the
Eyes of many
Or worse scum
Now I am beginning
To be accepted
Recognized
Developing my true potential
One day I will shine
My potential will be fulfilled
I know this
Others can see it
The light will always shine
If hope is kept
Love and acceptance
Makes it shine even brighter

In my free time, I enjoy reading, watching TV and movies, going on long walks, swimming, and practicing Chen style Tai Chi. I love to write poetry and blog regularly about topics such as mental health, sci-fi/fantasy series, faith, sexuality, and politics.
