I am the face of abuse
I hold the scares 
Seen and unseen
I am the child
With innocence stolen 
I am the young girl
That trusted wrongly 
I am the woman
That chose poorly
Then suffered greatly
I am the voice 
That cries out
In the darkness
I am the personality
Shattered and robed
Yes I am the face of abuse
That found the strength 
To become a survivor

That part hits close to home. And the ending is strong, like all survivors become.
I really like this.. the strength despite the pain. Thank you for sharing.
You are a member of an elite group of individual ... abuse survivors are very special and strong! BRAVO!
