Remember

I remember hiding, crying, cowering, screaming, begging God to end my life I remember my disappointment in waking each and every day and how I cursed his name, in anger I remember so many years wasted in despair as I died a little each day I remember the day I was freed badly frightened I was that there was nothing left of me I remember falling in love and finally feeling that I truly am alive I remember what I was before thankful for what I am and for oh so much more I will remember the life I have been shown that was given me by those I love It is all of you I will forever remember
