Family Justice Center of Erie County
My spirit is unbroken, though my body bears a scar.
Sometimes I really doubted I would ever get this far.
My eyes convey a sadness, but there’s strength behind the tears,
And hope is in my heart instead of emptiness and fear.
Within these walls of kindness, my healing has begun.
Your gentle words have soothed me like the radiance of the sun.
Who knew such possibilities were waiting to be found?
I thank you all for helping me to stand on firmer ground.
