We are all Survivors

Sherry Kinnard 1968 (Arizona)

March 22 


We are up, We are down,
We are in Love, We are not in Love,
We are Threatened, We are stalked,
We are mauled, We are abused,
We are raped, We are murdered.
We are all human no matter the race
We are men, We are women,
We are teens, We are children.
No matter who we are or where we are
We are all Survivors!
