Sister, Heal Thyself
Almost 400 years later, and we're still succumbing to the struggles of our past. Lasting effects of stress have riddled our bodies, and taken the air out of our chests.

Dear Young Angel Eyes
Dear Young Angel Eyes of my past self, I know it seems hard now and no hope seeps through. But I promise you... this abuse will end soon. The welts, tears and innocence taken, you will lift your head high and smile still. That kindness in you will never fade. Your broken heart will mend and heal. Nothing will ever change that gentle spirit. Angel Eyes you will survive! Know all the cruelties of this world. Keeping the hope you buried deep inside. The better tomorrow is coming little one. Remember who you are. And don't ever give up. I'll see you soon.

True Love
It's time. Today. Now. I will no longer be reminded day in and day out of my past. I will no longer allow my circumstances to overwrite my purpose. I will no longer let the excuses of who, what, when, where and how keep me from my why. At this time, my heart will begin its mending. My soul will learn to soar again. My eyes will start to shine brighter than the gold of 10,000 kings. Today! Not tomorrow.

Dear Mom!!!
You are the reason I am here. In your eyes, I will always be that little girl standing by your side with a couple of fears. The fear of losing your love, respect, and worst of all, your love. I know. Dealing with me this year has been tough. I know my trust with you is very fragile and I have lost a lot. But aren't proud of my accomplishments?

When I Became a Woman
When I became a woman, I didn’t get a choice. When I was 5, all of my friends were playing with barbies, but my mouth was filled with men and I was taught how to please them.
