Broken?

Broken. A word I never thought would apply to me. But life has a way of shattering the things you think are untouchable. I was manipulated, underestimated, and torn apart... left to make a choice I didn't even know was mine to begin with.

And then everything changed.

The life I once feared... became the only one that made me feel alive.
