Writing Workshop: "I remember" poem

I remember going to amusement parks and having no care in the world. I remember seeing the world in a whole new light after losing my innocence. I remember being the center of attention. I remember blankly staring at the walls when I received a time-out for my bad behaviors. I remember my many tantrums I threw. I remembering shattering glass to feel at ease. I remember being the object of blame. I remember staring blankly and not remembering a thing. I remember feeling suffocated from conventional familial love and support. I remember being outcasted. I remember the feeling of being all alone. I remember having the need to starve myself for some form of satisfaction. I remember feeling faint when I don't have the energy to make it through the day. I remember the feeling of every cut and scar on my body. I remember being stabbed by a classmate. I remember the need to fit in. I remember listening to the painful stories of my peers. I remember feeling normal. I remember exaggerating on my "rough" past.
