A Missing Link
She always feels a little lost
As if her identity is incomplete,
Was there a missing link
At the beginning of her life
Though she has loving adoptive parents
Not knowing her birth mother and father
She feels her soul is an orphan
And her heart always quests for an answer
She has many thoughts
About why she was abandoned at birth
But none of these ideas
Brings her peace and forgiveness
The missing part is an imperfection
In her self-image
Yet sometimes she is afraid
That she may find out
Her birth parents
Led a tainted life
