Invisible No Longer ©

To you I do not exist
I am sometimes seen and often times not heard.

You tell me it is my fault.....that I asked for it....
As if I control your fist or your words!

I must be strong to your weak...I will be the survivor...
I will pull myself up and go on.

I will no longer be "the
victim".

I will love me...because I deserve to be! 

I must love myself to be loved...

I will no longer be ....
INVISIBLE!!!
