to anyone out there in a toxic/abusive family/romantic/friend relationship:
i'm sorry. i understand. i'm in one i can't control. but we'll escape it together. if you can control it, get out of it. do what i can't. do it for me.
"Through broken glass and faded dreams
I find a place where I can scream
This pain is huge and takes me over
I cannot smell the scent of clover
I kneel down and count my blessings
For sometimes life is just distressing
I make my way through each raw minute
Feeling blessed that I'm still in it
This life is hard but I go on,
It's my soul journey to walk upon
I look out from my mind's eye
Never questioning or asking why
I know that whatever happens to me
Is to teach and set me free
A life taken for granted is not good cause
Take a breath to think and pause
I am strong and intelligent
I know I live with good intent
The shackles that I once wore
Can't contain me anymore
I am free and fly my wings
Appreciating every thing
Being true to who I am
Upon my bravery I do stand."
