Power Poem by K. E. C.

She grabbed the monster by the throat;
How does it feel to not be able to speak?
I am in control,
I am going to speak now, and I am going to speak loud
You will not hold your fist around my throat ever again
You will never stifle my voice
You will never tell me I am worthless, unloveable, or unwanted
I won't bite my tongue for fear of you hurting my soul any longer

I am free. Do you hear me? I. Am. Free.
