She stands
Afraid and broken
Trauma whispers in her ear, controlling every breath
But she knows deep inside, she's worth more
Kintsugi woman, shining in her scars
Accepting less than she deserved, dreaming of more
In a life that bound her in chains
She broke free, stronger
Fearful, yet trembling, she stood
No longer held back by the lies she believed
Her past may be revealed, but she's knows
She is enough

No need to carry other’s lies
Proving her worth
Stepping past the past, past the fear, embracing her truth
She rose up, a warrior, BECOMING
No more masks of lies
Now empowering others with her story
Louder she speaks, bolder she stands
Fearless and whole
FEARLESS, she carries a torch for siSTARS
Empowering others to ignite their spark
Through struggles and pain, we have found our true voices
Rising stronger, embracing our power
We are whole
Unbreakable resilience, Kintsugi women RISE
Revealing our story echoing and embracing the journey
Remove your masks, we are fearless and fierce
Kintsugi woman
