Welcome Back

36 13 25
                                    

I used to run from it,
now it's welcomed.

It may shred me to pieces,
but I put myself back together.

If I don't,
who will?

I learn to be strong,
my heart made of stone.

I stand up for myself,
even when I shouldn't.

Welcome back,
helplessness.
