#wantingtobeloved
The walls were built high
High as a skyscraper
She told herself to be careful
To never get burned again
She looks to her left and she looks to her right
Who can she really trust?
When nothing is going right
But all seems to be going wrong
Looking for a way up
But she can barely claw her way out
The walls were built high
She was done wrong
Wrong for the words that were said
So strong they shattered and cracked her
Wrong for the men who abused her
Ripping her apart
Wrong for the mother who she wish she had
A mom that only wants to act like a mother when it’s convenient
The walls were built high
Maybe they can be chipped a little at a time
Letting someone in to heal her soul
And telling herself though she be but little she is fierce
Trying to imprint those positive words
Trying to believe them
Because weak she is not
She is strong and fierce
Resilient and a survivor
Though her heart was broken
It can be repaired
This is not the end of her story
She has many more years
Stories to tell
Victims/Survivors to help
Because her voice matters
This is not the end of her story
And her walls will come crumbling down
Because her true self deserves to be seen and heard
This is my story
And it’s not over
