Tears of Validity

Validation

Vindication

Someone else gets it

Someone else believes me

Someone else names the monster

Someone else means, im not alone

It means

It wasnt me

It wasnt my fault

There was nothing I can do

There was nothing I could say

There was nothing going to change

(except me)

Validation steps along a tormented life of abuse

Tears mark the safe stations on the pathway

to the wall of no return

To the safe lands beyond

Relief tears

My load is lighter, its wasnt mine to carry

Validation

Someone else can actually see

Someone else has heard me

It wasnt my fsult

It wasnt me

Light feeling

Tears of Validity

Won and gained through the battle

of trying to get others to see

what I have seen, and felt

and received

I was valid all along

But was silenced and scared

I was valid all along

but was made to feel wrong

I was valid all along

Eggshell walking me

I was valid all along

My abuser was a she

Vindication

Validation

You were right

Is all I needed to hear.
