I Am A Survivor

I Am A Survivor ~ Photo by Patrice

I am a survivor 

I survived hatred, anger  
things
that made me a victim

I am a survivor

I came through
growing into someone
who understands how it happened

I am a survivor

Only hurt, remorse for those
who inflicted that hatred
that anger

I am a survivor

Have moved forward
built a life full of love, generosity
no hatred, some anger

I am

I am a survivor. 
~ Patrice
