Triggered on 16th

Triggered on 16th

 

So I ask myself

Will my emotions lead to my death?

Will I allow adversity to take over my mind

Persuade me to give up on life

Make me feel hopeless

No I will NOT!

I will continue to shine

I will continue to leave my mark on this earth

Those hideous thoughts that once triggered in my mind with fade away like the vanished on the windowpane

And then they say

“Stanatia are you fit for this journey?”

And I tell them

I’m a warrior of Christ

Because on September 16, 1999

A fearless Creative Goddess was born to shine

I was born to inspire others with this story of mine that I call my Testimony

You see

My thoughts are in my poetry

My feelings are expressed through music

Dance reduces my pain

And prayer keeps me lifted when I feel like giving up

The Devil wanted me in that grave

But God showed up and turned that rain into a sunny day

Even in the midst of doubt

Life is worth living

So I’m going to live my life to the fullest

And when I die

I promise I’ll be remembered
