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

With him I could never doubt...

No Crime

Sometimes I feel like I am living in hell
I am still a little girl living inside a shell
Forced to learn to be bold
Stuck in this world so cold
You think you got away with the madness that you started
That there is no crime to be heartless
