“I took every dream I ever had
pushed them inside a duffle bag
engraved with my daughter’s initials
and carried them with me
until it was safe to believe in them again
I promise you, Dear Broken Woman,
I used to be you
Until the day I looked into
my daughter’s eyes
and realized
she couldn’t wait to be me”
– Neisha H. aka Beautiful Dizaster
