No Longer Crying In Your Arms
No Longer Dying From Your Wounds
I am no longer crying in your arms,
No longer hiding bruises and scars,
All of the shame you put inside my head,
Has turned into confidence instead,
I'm no longer trembling when I hear your voice,
No longer screaming inside my head,
No longer silenced by your threats,
No longer bounded by your demands,
I am free to be myself today,
Free to follow my dreams,
Free to trust my instincts,
Free to use my voice,
I am no longer afraid to make a sound;
I am no longer dying from your wounds.

Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.
