stories

hide & seek

jason's story

now i am not ashamed!

my story

a client's story

fruition to butterfly

killing me softly

a letter

butterfly

prose

surfacing

you are not alone

music

in your skin

tomorrow came

poems

a question

blind

breathing in the dark

broken wings

but I will survive

different

dustbin

fragments

from little girl

healing service

hell

hitting a bad patch

i am not alone

i was a child

in my dreams

inside

janet's socks

kumbaya

last thing at night

listen to me

mama's coming home

one day

pervy pete

dissociation

true colours

waiting to exhale

what longs to be free

who am i

you, him and me

you

walk towards love

 

From Little Girl - to Lady

 

 

A little girl lost
That's just what I was
To say thank you is a definite must
But that just don't seem enough
Because without ur help
I would still have been so lost.

U gave me strength to face the pain
And made me strong again
Showing me the way
To a brighter day
You gave me a future
Instead of a dead end way

I used to look for that disgusted look
But no matter what
U never gave me that
Look

You made me feel safe
To open up
And look at the skeletons that
Had been locked up
We just took them one by one
Till they were nearly all done

U never pushed or said go away
You kept going
To help me find my way
You had faith in me
And helped me come such a long way

So from the bottom of my heart
I want to say
A very big thank you
For helping me find my way from that little girl
To the lady I am today
