Favorite Quote:
Our fingerprints never fade from the lives we touch.


It is time to speak up,
To speak the unspoken
If somewhere in time
You plan to heal the broken.
It is an absolute must
To take a stand against abuse
And tell someone you trust
And tell them the truth.
Let it all out
You've been punished enough.
Time to be a child again,
Happy and safe,
Enjoying everyday of your life
Setting free all pain and strife
Its not the smallest bit your fault,
This you did not deserve
You should feel no guilt,
But trust me and tell.

The author's comments:
I was abused as a child and I know how difficult it is to find the courage to tell, so this is to encourage all those who haven't said anything yet.
