Survivors we stand Mood
Tuesday, April 15, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

Survivors we stand 

 

The world sucks as far as it goes,

So many hurt so many know,

As rape, abuse, and loss go,

Know one is a lone out there,

So many have felt it and know,

But we are not victims and I want you to know,

We will fight back cause that is all we know,

How to survive and live with all the pain in our souls,

Love is hard for us as we can not see,

Because of all the hurt that is in thee,

Because of you we hide in thee,

Scared to come out and silent indeed,

The worse has passed and united we stand,

We join each other to learn how to fight back,

How to take the pain and work it out,

How to take our lives and turn them out,

So as it goes here we are,

You will never hurt us we are on a new start,

Survivors we stand right from the start.
