Once upon a time there was a little girl who was never asked about her feelings. She could see with one eye. When she was younger, she would sing loudly to get the attention of the kindergarten teacher. When she got older, she realized that no one paid attention to her voice. So she decided to ignore this part of herself. As if she was just like everyone else. Once she wanted to tell her mom how she was feeling. To say that she felt unloved, that she felt lonely, that she always had to keep her head down. But her mother cried. She decided never to say anything. Now she is grown up. Three years she went to a psychologist to learn to have eye contact with people and show her true feelings even if she feels lots of anger. Now she knows that under the numbness she feels anxiety. Then anger, fear, sadness. She is afraid of loneliness . afraid of being abandoned. afraid Of not being loved. and afraid of fighting alone. Scars that will always remain, but she has learned that her loneliness and her scars have made her unique. She is a warrior woman The Art painted physically, ink on paper, then edited and colored digitally by procreate
