When you don't want to remember the #trauma - #holocaustpoetry [poem on white background with dark red border] I want to remember my past To see before my eyes The image of my parents The house in which I grew up The village in which my family lived for generations I don't want to remember my past I fear for what my memory Might bring before my eyes I wonder whether I can continue my life If I'll rescue from oblivion What I want to recall. #survivorpoetry #traumatized #traumaticmemories #amnesia #traumatized #holocaust #holocaustmemes #abusesurvivor #repressedmemories #repression https://www.facebook.com/TraumaAndDissociation/photos/a.357820054319427.1073741828.357814604319972/1053653661402726/?type=3

This is a piece I wrote while healing from an extremely traumatic childhood. I was a victim of childhood sexual abuse, and recovered. This is a TRIGGER WARNING!!! If you are easily triggered you may not want to watch this piece. But I would encourage you. I suffered from a severe mental illness - Dissociative Identity Disorder, and while I still have echoes of this illness, I came through. And became a happy, healthy human being. You can too!

A poem that names the names of those who abused me in childhood. And, how I kept myself a victim as well. This was an empowering poem to write when I was younger. Revisiting it helps me see how far I鈥檝e come. It is totally amazing to still be alive and happy and healthy too! If you were a victim. Know that there is help people who will listen, and support you!
A Poem A Day Week 4: Poem 24: Unfettered
Thank you for watching.

Another piece that was performed with the Mud People. A group I belonged to in Tucson.i wrote it to try to make sense of my childhood. I re-read it to connect with others who might need encouragement on the path to healing.
