My Dad’s Second Wife Was The Real Woman Who Raised Me

Contrary to the depraved characterization of stepmothers universally, I have been raised by one who epitomizes compassion and affection, embodies every imaginable virtue attributed to motherhood. I can’t bring myself to match the word ‘mother’ to any other face.

I, Me, Myself

I see a storm, rising in my soul.
Bringing my destruction to a whole.
I am scared of the unknown
And the unknown is, Me.
