A survivor strong

Innocent child, a warrior in disguise,

Surviving the shame, the abuse, the lies.

Coping with trauma, healing the pain,

Finding hope in the midst of the blame.

My story unfolds, the past revealed,

A journey of courage, not easily healed.

Through the darkness, a light shines through,

A beacon of strength, a warrior true.

No longer a victim, but a survivor strong,

Turning the page, where I belong.

Embracing the future, leaving behind,

The chains of the past, a new chapter to find.

Thank you for reading, liking, and commenting to my posts.  It is very appreciated.

I am currently raising money to pay for ongoing psychotherapy. I am a survivor of complex trauma, I have dissociative identity disorder, and complex PTSD.  Therapy can be very expensive.

If you feel like donating to my fund you can donate using pay pal. My pay pal email for donating is:

Manyofus1980@gmail.com

Don’t feel you have to, there is no pressure, but I’m grateful for any donations that are received.

Again thanks for visiting!
