MY SCORCHED VALLEY
I'VE SEARCHED FOR HAPPINESS IN THE MIDDLE OF CHAOS.
SOUGHT FOR LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS.
ADAPTED TO THE DAY BECAUSE I WOULD ONLY COME ALIVE AND BE ACTIVE AT NIGHT.
SET OFF IN FEAR AND TREPIDATION, WHILE MANEUVERING AND HIDING IN THE SHADOWS.
ABSCONDING AND BEING ON THE RUN WAS ROUTINE
AND EMBEDDED IN MY DAILY LIFE.
DECISIONS, EXPERIENCES, AND LOST TIME ARE SCARS MARKED AND LEFT ON MY BODY.
