I was a child filled with wonder filled with love and curiosity. I was a child who loved questions and to wander without anxiety. Not even a year old had my heart turned cold. As a child, I was relied on, depended on, beaten on. As a child, I only knew pain, heartache and how life truly was. Life wasn't fair not even to a child. Not to a child's heart without a care. Only a few rays of light shed through the cracks in the wall of my heart. Not even an adult had my eyes become so old . . .so alone. The only thought that remained "Become stronger. Stronger. No limitations, no excuses." I had to be stronger for her. So she wouldn't crumble. I have become stronger but I have become a stranger. My strength leaves me though, when he holds me tightly. His arms become my home. and his heart is my life. This was my answer, she has also grown stronger. I have been on autopilot all along. I should have just known. I am Strong on my own. But I am Stronger with the friends I have found.

Stronger
