I am Me. Survivor not a victim. I have been writing poetry since my youth. I work in animal rescue. I am a mother of 4. I love that we can all express ourselves through art, whatever type it may be to let them feelings free Sunshine

So blind to who I truly am

No More Curse

Love yourself
If God were counting every year
I would already have an ocean
He knows my heart
Every lie you or I have spoken
