Nina Nobody

Nina thought she was nobody

because that’s what people said

she looked down at her hands

and saw the color red.

She had ended their life.

The life of the one

who could never just accept her.

The one whose parents bragged

because they kept her.

Nina was an orphan

so they would poke fun

they would circle her, block her,

and force her to run.

But Nina came back.

But with a knife instead of hope.

What Nina didn’t know

is that there were other answers

but she chose a direction that widened the problem.

What Nina didn’t know

was that she was somebody

she was just somebody who needed help.

Nina says now that she wishes she asked for it.
