My choice

Becky Baglio 1971 (LA)

Free verse
We are a wild and free generation,
We are born with a silver spoon,
We were taught right from wrong,
But had a mind of our own,
And we became who we wanted to become ,
But we had to pay the price of love.

About this poem

It’s about who and want I wanted to become.
