Tortured Truth
Meer oor hierdie e-boek
Every light starts in the darkness.
What is your greatest fear?
Could you face it every day and remain sane?
For years I've been kept like an animal in a cage.
A pet to please, a slave to serve.
They stole my dignity, revoked my right as a mother and wife.
Before being taken, I was radiant, joyous even.
My elders often spoke with great reverence about who I was to become. A spiritual example to my community, yet I find it hard to see the purpose when looking in the mirror and seeing the scars of a woman I no longer recognize.
Though many try and silence our pain, I open my palms to show you the evidence of suppression.
My name is True Mouringdove a descendant of an Indigenous Tribe.
This story is not a reenactment of victory and triumph.
But a willingness to continue, under the most wicked of circumstances.
I am here, and I am a survivor.
But that doesn't mean my captors will have the same blessing.
