    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Seven faces she wore at different times. She knew not when each face’s expression might appear (some rarely; some oftentimes, giving to others a different impression.) Horrific abuse caused her mind to split when she was young. Her main self took back seat when stressed, but she was not aware of it. Always she was feeling so incomplete. Her main personality would just go black. She’d find herself somewhere not knowing why or how she got there, or what brought her back to the face of hers which time had passed by. Help she sought. After months of digging deep through hypnotherapy and through much talk, a better hold on herself she could keep, for secrets she was able to unlock. Those secrets that had fractured her poor mind she has now confronted; seven faces to one another are no longer blind, and beautiful hope she now embraces.
