This is a story of my death by the hands of society but it's also the story of my rebirth. Speaking out in both pain and healing. The pain of rape, abuse, silence, suicide and mental health. How I found myself caged in a psych ward, afraid of what my sexuality meant. This is the story of how we became who we are and ultimately how I found the courage to speak out. This is my story but it's also the story of so many others who came before me and it's a symbol to say that we are no longer afraid.
