Scars and blood - Becoming Feminist

these are my scars
this is my blood
I won’t be ashamed of them

I’ve been at the bottom
and broken down
I’ve been cut and stepped
so I hide out

I’ve been too pretty and too ugly
I have been hurt
no self pride and
self worth

I want myself like nothing else
I make a peace with all my past
I will stand up to my fear

If it’s too much
I will rest but I won’t stop
This pain is rooted deep
It may take lifetime to take it out

I’ve shed blood over my veins
I promised not to hold any tears
I will carry on
