I Flip The Script ©️Dawn Minott

On By Dawn MinottIn Poetry

In the tapestry of life, I hold the pen
Scripting my story again and again
Responsibility rests on these shoulders of mine
To be brave, to be bold, to let my light shine

In chapters of courage I’ll tell my tale
With ink of determination writing won’t fail
For each page I turn a new story will unfold
A journey of strength where my spirit takes hold

I’ll re-script the past for a lesson-based future
Transforming the scars into stories I’ll nurture
With every word written a new path I chart
To share with the world a transparent-true heart

Let me write and re-write with purpose divine
In the book of my life, acts and faith intertwine
For it’s my responsibility my story to mold
To be brave, to be bold, to let the truth be told

    WOW!! A Truly inspiring Statement!! I can strongly resonate with these very words!! I may have had a traumatic start at such a young age that was a dark family secret for many years, but that is until I finally gathered up the courage to open up and tell my story and the truth behind all the inhumane and heinous abuse I suffered for 15 straight years. It’s my story to mold, to be bold, and let the truth be known.
