Prompt #14

This week's prompt is to write a poem based on your experience with trauma.


Survivor:
I am not a victim.
I have picked up the pieces of my life
and put them back together.
I am not alone.
I walk in solidarity
with thousands of others like me.
I am not weak.
What has not killed me has made me stronger.
I am not a statistic.
Not a number, but flesh and bones.
Not a scare tactic, but a human being.
I am not a victim.
I am a survivor.


What would your poem be?
