My body aches just to be seen,
My skin full of scars, past traumas unseen.
I yearn for a world free of shame
Where I can be safe, without fear and blame.
For so long, l've kept this pain boxed in.
Too scared of the judgement, too scared of the sin.
My emotions are a powerful contradiction,
Hope and despair, this feeling is a warped addiction.
But I won't give in to fear and I won't be afraid to reignite the fire to fight!
The strength that lies within my core
No one will ever hurt me like this anymore.
I know the risks, I understand the stakes My scars will open, my heart will break.
But with courage and grace, I shall emerge
My healing a truth, this fire I'll purge.
It's not a path ever wanted to take
But I'm ready to learn from my mistakes.
My story will be told as a reminder to all, That it matters to rise regardless of the fall.
