She was the sweet girl

She was the beauty in the world

The broken bones that go along with the broken heart

I am that girl

I am the tidal wave of anti-depressants

And test after test

I am worn down and torn but I am strong

I am a lover and courageous.

I am a college student running through the real world alone

I am a victim of domestic violence with no one in my corner

I am strong and I am ready

I am a miracle

I am love

I am a future doctor

I am me and that is the best I can be
