Last Straw

Last Straw

A Poem by therisa
"

Acrostic.

"
Line crossed of no return
Affirmation of self
Standing up to bullies
Taking control.
 
Surrendering to growth not fear
Talking about abusive past
Refusing to accept the blame
Able to give self-love
Walking away.

Just wish, some things were easier, than others. But that's another write, for another time.
