My life through color

RAINBOW

WAS MY CHILDHOOD I was so bright without a care in sight. I started to rebel looking for the love I’m never felt. I broke down momma sent to a safe place she thought. No enters..

BLUE

Not seeing my family took a toll on me I got expose to things I should have never seen. I got rape and molested constantly by people I call family . I became someone else at this point this little girl doesn’t exist crying to myself as I scrubbed my body face and lips.

Then came...

RED

Made me hate myself and people around me for not protecting me. In and out of abusive relations feeling that’s what I deserved then came.....

BLACK

Made me distant and depressed wondering who be next to violate my sex. my mind screwed up from all the physical and metal beatings then I had kids what was I thinking.

GREY

Finding my strength for my children making sure that what happened in my life for there’s that shit we be forbidden. No more what’s goes on here stays here for a innocent child it’s destruction.

WHITE

mental silence became mental freedom and a voice for others suffering. I am now the light that I used to look for in the darkness.

Signed..
