you knew what was coming yet you went through it,
you survived,
broken glass and insecurities did not make you stray away from the narrow path,
when you looked in the mirror, all you saw was nothing but your scars and unfulfilled dreams,
you felt at best a failure,
a disappointment disguised as courage,
it took a long time to open up and yet you did,
this side of you which had never been seen before,
all of a sudden the voices hushed,
the yelling ceased,
the scars healed,
are you not a survivor?
