Acceptance.......i

agriss.photosight.ru

Did I complain,
you ask.
No, I didn't.
There was so much
taken away
torn off
trampled upon
and yet...
I retreated
not in defeat
but in acceptance
not of the other
but of myself
and said all
that wasn't me.
I am still whole
complete
integral
to my self.
No, I won't allow
anything
anyone
to take my self
away;
it's my precious
me.
