A poem I wrote 10 years ago describing the most important thing regarding my adoption.
Two Words

    A hole inside
    deep and dark
    just barely wide
    enough to park
    two little words
    two syllables each
    naming two thirds
    of what's beyond reach
    only at night
    or alone in the car
    do those words light
    like some far away star
    no rage, nor anger
    no depressed state
    just simple wonder
    of an unkown fate
    once more I sit
    in my room alone
    a little boy
    who now has grown
    with a hole in his heart
    but no questioning why
    only, Mommy, Daddy...
    Who am I?
