We are taught as children that Whatever doesn't **** us makes us stronger But my body is unable to forget That I am more victim than I am survivor. I have yet to learn how to turn my pain into strength However you didn't **** me And my strength is shown in staying awake shaking and crying As I am unable to stop reliving the past. My body carries you from place to placeΒ Β Like a fever that i cannot break You are relentless You are the unforgiving shadow that i cannot cut off.
