“A poem cannot stop a bullet. A novel can't defuse a bomb. But we are not helpless. We can sing the truth and name the liars.” Salman Rushdie

Survival is not a badge of honor Pages drafted in tears Ink splattered notes Fingers rifle through in rage No liner notes for pain A diary that wants to die But memories of your smile Can only be written By those who survive #poetry #writingformylife
