Book I: Through Darkness and Thorns
Chapter
I: Wrapped Around Rage
|
In Suffering
Together born into pain
Together survived in suffering.
Rules, judgement, inadequacy;
Separated at birth,
Given away,
Sister I have no more.
Crucified me
No family
Not believed, Alone.
Given Christopher
Made to take away
Judgement.
Not believed,
Given a choice,
Freedom in telling,
Individuality,
Anger to those
That leave Me.
