&quot;It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.&quot;<br /> ~Mark Twain


I spent a hear there

Darkness and depression prone

In a place called foster care

I spent nights cold and alone

 

Potential happy memories, gone

Wishing I'd never left home

Sleepless, waiting for the dawn

Wanting to go home

 

It took a year

But they finally let me go

They realized I had no reason to be there

I stopped sinking low

 

I'm thankful that I am back where I belong

Even though it took so long


The author's comments:

I had to write a sonnet of something I am thankful for in English class. This is what I wrote.
