I survived

Despite it all

It didn't matter what you thought

Did

Or said

I kept going

I walked through the thorns

With blades in my chest

Scars on my body

Tears in my eyes

I don't know how I did it sometimes

No

I do

The gentle hands that comfort me

The sweet voices that calmed me

The strong persences that stood behind me

That allowed me to stand tall

To walk on

To heal

To dry my eyes

I found it in me to go on

To travel on

To leave you

Fight back

To allow my own thoughts to spill through

Find myself

Love myself

Be myself
