She Is A Survivor
She lived it
She felt it
She was brought to her knees
She cried
She trembled
She could not believe what happened to her
She took it
She hid it
She turned it away
She went into her shell
This was where she would stay
Writhing with pain
Senseless with fear
Turning inside her
It was her lot to bear
She lived it
She felt it
She was brought to her knees
Until
One day
She could bear it no more
She looked into her innermost core
She felt the latent strength
She saw the unused courage
She made a choice that day
She would no longer be the victim
She would take back her freedom
She would do all that she could to find a way
Freedom for her dreams,
Freedom for her body,
Freedom for her soul
She decided
She made a choice that day
She would be a Survivor
