&ldquo;Whatever you are physically...male or female, strong or weak, ill or healthy--all those things matter less than what your heart contains. If you have the soul of a warrior, you are a warrior. All those other things, they are the glass that contains the lamp, but you are the light inside.&rdquo; <br /> ― Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Angel


red paint, chipped.
i was bruised
from the tree.
the yard
the swing,
when it rained,
the mud covered
our bodies.
dad took photos of us
with a cheap camera.
four years passed.
five, six
seven-
      eight...

someone stole your innocence,
you robbed me of mine.
