Tarnished

The feeling of being damaged seemed to surround Emma, but this feeling Emma was not of her own invention, it clung to her from those around her. But no, felt she was more something tarnished, a gem needing to be polished. A dark past that grew to define her very being Emma now lives in the shadow of a time gone by. Only through the understanding of who she truly is will Emma be able to turn the page and progress with a life that she deserves.
