Resilient
Her body is fighting.
To stay alive
Living in poverty
Has destroyed her life.
Different diseases are taking over her life.
No food in the fridge
With four little kids
A single mother
They don’t know where their father is.
He comes and goes.
Leaves one more kid
Now she’s on to five.
With nowhere to live
Her mother is dead.
Her father is dead.
Her brother is dead.
There’s only one left.
He can help a bit.
But the problem is:
Her
Addiction kicks in.
Alcohol,
You smell it on her skin.
Fighting the demons in her head
After years of struggle,
She goes to college.
Gets her bachelors
A home of her own
With six kids
Still a single mother
Still fighting
