A soul once broken

A soul once broken a life once feared, The weight of my words and cheeks covered in tears, Silence screams in an empty life, The emotions and tension you could cut with a knife, Scars still tender wounds still raw, There's no way I could of took any more, In the mirror a reflection stares, A face once broken now slowly repairs, I look in the mirror and say 'dont let her win' But the memories of pain still hide deep within, I'm a fighter I'm a survivor I'm alive, and now I'm aiming to thrive, I was a soul once broken, but now my whole body and mind has woken
