LIFE FOREVER CHANGED

The night that would forever change my life
Was the night he wielded his power like a knife
At times I still feel the tightness of his grip
I remember how my psyche he did strip.

From there the shame and fear took control
And I fell deeper and deeper into a black hole
Trying to hide my wounds and bruises
All their questions only confuses.

I hear a voice calling in the night
A hopeful chorus telling me to fight
The clouds of despair begin to lift
I no longer feel like I am adrift.

I no longer sit in the darkness and cower
For now I know my voice does have power
The sanctity of my body he may have stolen
But I am the one who is now emboldened.

As I grow stronger with every passing day
My voice helps to guide others along their way
I know I have the courage to see this fight through
Because I found healing in the power of #metoo.
