Maybe Now

      Now that I have fed like a vampire
      on the beautiful words of others,
      Now that I have been created by men,
      Now that I have seen what is good in myself
      in the eyes of men no will no longer
      look at me in a few more years, maybe
      Now I can create myself, maybe
      Now I can write poetry
      from my soul,
      instead of choking on my heartbreaks.
      I will try.
