You are brave
To bear your scars
You say I hurt
You say I am vulnerable
You say at times I feel like I wish that I could die
Because the deep down truth is that you suffer
At the hands of others
Who could not bear you being you
It takes such courage to feel that pain of inauthenticity
But somewhere deep inside
You love life
And a fire burns
All your pain
Comes from the harsh realisation
Of how in being starved
You could feel you were less than
And therefore had to beg for or buy love
But true love
Lies in authenticity
Even if the authentic real dark at times with tarnish
Obscures the true brightness of your orphan soul
Exposed to pain
Exposed to life
You travelled down so deep and into such pain and emptiness
Bearing things others could never imagine
To find a love
That now
No can take from you
For all survivors of abuse
Emerging From The Dark Night 
Wow!!

Well written! being an overcomer, hopeful, resilient… allowing healing to happen… You are compassionate for those abused and a voice to those hurting… I worked in an emergency shelter for abused and neglected children who I prayed with at night and I’d tell them to thank God when HE took away their nightmares. HE did and showed them HE was real, cared for them, and loved them… I am so glad you are emerging from the dark night… Keep writing
