    I Am
    I am a woman.
    I am scared.
    I am hurting.
    I am pain.
    I am wonder.
    I am joy.
    I am love.
    I am a survivor.
    I am who I am and what you presume me to be.
    I am a victim of what I am and that is what I know.
    The who I am is new to me she surfaced from inside.
    I know she is a part of me the who, the what, the why.
    I hope to oneday figure it out but for now all I know.
    She is someone who looks like me, but someone I don't know.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
