Found
Beaten, Broken, Bent.
I was tossed away as garbage.
I hid among the shadows for fear of pain and retribution for being born.
Alone, Adrift.
I sailed through the town of my youth where none recognized but what I'd become.
I was no one's lover, no one's daughter, no one's friend.
It took but a moment, a mistake, a miracle and I fell upon my salvation.
She was alone, adrift and yet not broken.
