Prompt / Lyrics
Justice for My 9-Year-Old Self I was nine, when the world went quiet, when laughter turned to fear, and a child’s light dimmed beneath a shadow that wasn’t hers. For years I carried silence like a second skin, whispers stitched into scars only I could feel. But today— the silence broke. The word guilty echoed through the same air that once held my cries. A life sentence— two words heavy enough to lift a weight from me. Not because it erases the past, but because it honors the girl who never stopped surviving. This is for her— for the nine-year-old me who thought no one would believe her, for the girl who still flinched at the dark, for the woman who learned her voice is power. Justice came late, but it came. And when it did, I held her hand— my younger self— and whispered, We’re free now.
