Memories From Childhood Poem by Chris Embrick
Memories From Childhood
Fearing the future, hiding his heart's pain
He endured their daily taunting, wishing
For just one kind soul, a friend he could claim
He grew up, a part of childhood missing
They came like vipers surrounding, hissing
His heart stinging from the verbal arrows
He had no armor for resisting
He just withdrew like a broken sparrow
Rejection, the physical scars of shame
Behind the man, the memories remain.
