In Clouds Across the Sky, the International House of Poetry put together a compliation to showcase poets from around the world. Simone Nikkole's poem, Me is included in this book. It is also in her upcoming book, My Journey through Poetry.

Me

Why Me?
I get pick-pointed
It’s hard being me
When sarcasm takes its toll
I feel whole
Back in reality, life
Is pain and strife
But there are different sides
Of me that I often hide
Sensitive me, caring me, music me
Then there is the tough me
Many people see
Without that where would I be?
Locked in my room trying not to cry
Then I sigh
If it’s one side of me you hate
Hating them all is your fate
You have to deal with my many sides
To understand the real me inside
