Looking Within...

Strength Within Fragility


I see you on the outside
not letting anyone in...

I wonder why?

What have you gone through?

What have you seen?

Who has hurt you?

Why you?

The facade you place
before the world
beckons to be torn
aside.
The mask you wear
hides an inner
struggle of a faraway
pain.
Something you
had no control over.
Something that
caused you shame.
But inner healing
has begun.
And your metamorphosis
is in progress
and one day
you will breathe
and see colors again.

This poem is dedicated to a friend who has gone though a journey that I can not begin to comprehend.  She is not the only one unfortunately.  In fact I have other friends who have gone through a similar journey.  There are many ways to heal and overcome circumstances that were not meant to be yours to begin with.  May God wrap you in his ever loving arms for the rest of your life and keep you safe from harm.
