But I Am

A word to the broken,
A rag for the tears,
We all have felt hopeless
We all have longed for years.
Empower yourself
Embrace yourself
Fight with everything you have.

Even if you have to scream through the pain;

I've been beaten down and run over
But I am Powerful.
I've felt unwanted and unimportant
But I am Not alone.
I've felt the opinionated stares and stone cold calculated laughter,
But I am Myself.
I've known nothing but burning darkness and freezing pain,
But I am Strong.
I've been abandoned by life and abused by death,
But I am Wanted.
I've cut patterns so deep and breathed so shallow,
But I am Worthy.
I've been sworn at and sent away,
But I am Good Enough.
I've received broken promises and patched up apologies,
But I am Loved.
I've seen last breaths and first blood,
But I am Free.
I've been told I am never going to be worth something,
But I am.
