A Poem Written by Vivian Ennis 02/09/01
I sit in rooms full of crowds
and listen to the people talking out loud
I let no one really come close to me
I am afraid of what they may turn out to be
My fear lingers on inside
and it is also mixed with a type of pride
The pride that is inside of me
is a pride of having achieved being alone and free
Free to feel the way I do
without all others judgments too
Free to be the person I am
and not have to follow another’s plan
See I can live the way I feel
and still know I am love for real
I can spend my whole day through
being happy and never ever blue
I can smile when I want and cry as well
and be who I am without all the hell
I guess what I am really trying to say
is that I like being free any way
