"Echoes of Teenage Torment: Reclaiming My Voice"
"In this poem, I delve into the depths of my past, where neglect and trauma shaped my turbulent journey, yet through the flames of anger, I discover the strength to rewrite my story and find healing, reclaiming the voice silenced by pain."
In the mirror's gaze, I see her reflection clearly,
That inner teenage girl, consumed by fear.
Anger boils within, a tempest of the past,
Forgotten wounds and memories amassed.
Each scar is a story, etched upon my soul,
The pain of neglect, taking its toll.
In childhood's grip, I was left to roam,
A turbulent sea, without a guiding home.
Thrown to the winds, abandoned in the storm,
My innocence shattered, emotions forlorn.
Betrayed by trust, in a world so cold,
Left to navigate, a path I couldn't hold.
My heart, a battleground, torn apart by strife,
In the chaos of my mind, I fight for life.
The shadows of trauma, haunt my days,
Fueling the fire of my turbulent ways.
Raised on neglect, a hunger for love,
But every embrace felt like a push and a shove.
In the labyrinth of emotions, I lost my way,
Trapped in the darkness, night turned to day.
The pain of abandonment, a relentless ache,
In the depths of despair, my heart did break.
BPD, they label me, a disorder they claim,
But it's the scars of my past that fuel this flame.
So let me rage, let me scream and cry,
For the girl inside who was left to die.
I'll reclaim my power, rise from the dust,
For beneath the pain, lies strength and trust.
Though the wounds may linger, deep and sore,
I'll heal with each step, I'll rise once more.
For in my anger, I find my voice,
And in reclaiming my past, I make my choice.
No longer defined by the scars I bear,
I'll rewrite my story, with love and care.
For the teenage girl within, she'll find her way,
Through the darkness of night, to the light of day.
