Self Portrait

Lost within her soul

Groped by the darkness as a whole

Colored lights streaming through

Trying to scope for happiness in morning's dew

Slowly the heart begins to - die

When it does, it shall be the final good bye...

S H A T T E R E D into many pieces

Believe it's time to consult Jesus

Increasing in desperation for security

None will listen, for being the minority

Loving family, yet fallen apart

Hurts deeply; now who will mend thy heart?

Been deceived by those trusted

How to open up, when all is so rusted...

Experiences happen for a reason

Just as the phenomenon of a changing season

Torn between two cultures

Constantly being watched by incoming vultures

Difficulties rising each step she takes

Healing, and evolving each time she wakes

Haunted by her excruciating past

Will tranquility ever come at last?

Flames BURN deep inside her - churning an everlasting strength

It breathes within, in this power of endless length

Waiting patiently to be freed from the isolation she feels...

Meantime - self discovers, and heals.

Listening to melodies, dreaming of fantasies - rising up above

A calm, mesmerizing vista of an escapade of cherry blossoms and white doves

A third eye to see beyond - future sight

Indeed a gifted might with a heart full of light!

The constant signs everywhere she goes

With the many black birds protecting...she knows

As the cloak of night falls into place

That's where she roams, it is her space

Sagittarius - fun loving, honest, optimistic astrological sign

The soul of a fighter, a soul that is rightfully mine

Living as a rose bud; slowly interchanging - becoming free

Now beautiful, bold, and daring as a rose should be.
