I could not speak
My voice was held down captive
I have been stripped down to my bare bones
Ripped apart over and over
Screaming but nothing comes out
I have been tainted
The darkness hovers over me
Shattered pieces of me scattered
Everywhere
As I slowly grow courage and re-paint
My pieces back together
And create a new me
With cuts and bruises
I slowly peel away the darkness
And mold myself into my newness
