You Don’t Know Me
I live my life Never fully revealing who I am But it’s all there inside me The only place I’ve even been allowed To survive If I’ve tried to extend outwards I’ve been battered back A prisoner of their fear And the need to control in order to feel strong They haven’t won though BecauseContinueContinue reading “You Don’t Know Me”

Being Less Human
Describe one positive change you have made in your life. The end of the rainbow is real That image was taken in Matlock about 3 weeks ago.
