It hurt you. Again
When you thought it would end
It wouldn't get any more worse
It couldn't harm you no more
But. It did
They have stayed with you
They will stay with you
These scars
That hurt you
And broke you
But these are part of you
They've made you
And only stronger
So wear them
Fiercely and with grace
You are who you are. Proudly.
You're not broken
You and everything about you is valid
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise
Overpower what suppresses you
And rise.
- Sarah Ali
