Unwanted by Melissa Minners      In the corner of my mind In the deepest recess Sits a wounded child Afraid and alone Terrified of the world Unable to commit Afraid of the pain She cringes from the unknown   Hiding from everyone Yet always looming Like a bad dream That always returns   The wounded child waits For the moment When her deepest fears Will be realized   She’ll be cast aside   For feedback, visit our message board or e-mail the author at talonkarrde@g-pop-net.
