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.
