I am broken I am scars I am silence I am darkness I am trouble. I am ***** I am damaged I am faults wrapped in eager flaws. I am unrepentant I am shamed I am shattered I am irreparable. I am lost. I am every child that was ever taken too soon from the breast of its mother. I am every girl who's innocence was shredded by greedy hands and hungry mouths. I am every pill I ever lined up and swallowed in the hope of sating the voice that begged for my passing. I am every whiskey I ever chased into oblivion with another...and another ....and another. I am all these things and yet I am hope I am beauty I am laughter I am free. I am honesty I am belief I am truth. I am. I am worthy... I. am. worthy. I am healing. I am loved. Finally.
