Twisted Truth — Write Back

Extract from Twisted Truth.

CHAPTER 5: Hope?

Is there really hope?

A chapter full of questions I have just unfolded. Again, help me before I lose it.

Hope is lost. Thoughts of being unstoppable seem so far away.

I just want to be seen as the:

Proud girl

Happy girl

Fighter girl

Despite everything, survived girl

Not being ashamed girl

Lifting up others girl

I just want to be…

The example.

Fear holds me back, I am stuck.

Life is shifting and something inside is lifting? What is it? Oh, it’s just another sign of negativity. Disappointing.

Never to late to learn, never to late to change but, but I have given up. This time all I crave is hope and, perhaps, happiness…

But I’ll get on with my life and you will get on with yours.

BUT…

Do you have an answer to my question?

Is there a way to break free without breaking us apart? Is there a way you can learn from the past and heal in the present? Is there a way to stay together and still move on? Is there way to forgive some who has caused you pain, made you feel worthless? Made you feel tiny?

Is there?

Maybe.

I will be strong even when I don’t feel like it.
