I am the fourteen year old girl held on the bed I am the girl screaming in my sleep I am the girl, crying, alone I am the girl who watched others get hurt. I am the girl who sent a ****** to prison. I am my anxiety, Welling like an oncoming flood in my stomach and Hammering in my throat I am my depression, Back and forth, up and down, like a heart rate monitor I am my trauma Held deep in my body, My muscles corded around the pain I can’t get rid of. I am the girl who defied it all I am the girl who made a difference I am the girl who stood up! And I am here, I am the girl who is stronger than I ever imagined.

My Fourteen-Year Old Self's Hero
I am the fourteen year old girl held on the bed I am the girl screaming in my sleep I am the girl, crying, alone I am the girl who watched others get hurt. I am the girl who sent a ****** to prison. I am my anxiety, Welling like an oncoming flood in my stomach and Hammering in my throat I am my depression, Back and forth, up and down, like a heart rate monitor I am my trauma Held deep in my body, My muscles corded around the pain I can’t get rid of. I am the girl who defied it all I am the girl who made a difference I am the girl who stood up! And I am here, I am the girl who is stronger than I ever imagined.
