Broken Brain

July 4, 2018 by The Lady Nerd 1 Comment

Broken Brain art series by Andrew Artimage and The Lady Nerd.
Some days are as hard
As the day when you broke
When you were taken apart
And couldn’t understand why you

Some days everything hurts
And no one truly understands
Because they weren’t remade
In the image that was once you

Those are the days you fight the hardest
Not to be who you were, no
But because that is who you are
A fighter who reforged her soul

The broken who again become whole
Are the most beautiful of all
Every scar a testament of life
Every jolt of pain a reminder
This is what survival looks like
Pain and laughter and joy
Tears you can’t always hide
And a soul that will never give up the fight

My beautiful friend, Stevie surprised me with this poem she wrote to help me get through days that my injured brain hates me (which seems to be all the time lately). So I wanted to share this in hopes that it might help someone else.

Amazing photo by Andrew Artimage (from a never before seen photoshoot of mine from a year or so ago that I’ve been too nervous to share. But I’ve come to realize how powerful these photos are. They are art through which I expressed my inner anguish that, at the time, I was trying to keep hidden from the world to keep up my usual Kaylee Frye-esuqe usual nature. I’m proud I did them).
