Triumphant




An empty shell is all they see,
When they look at you.
They judge and condemn !
They make you believe,
That you . . .You are nothing !

Through the passage of time,
I have seen you transform;

From wandering through mists,
Of lack and confusion,
Shrouded in pain;
And hiding in darkness,
Unwilling to see, to let go.

You've raged and screamed,
And shed heartbroken tears.
You've prayed and plead,
But, suffered in silence.

Shattered hopes, unraveled dreams,
Did try to break you many times over.

But the testament of your strength,
Seeing you fight back again and again !
Beating all odds in silent rebellion,
A lifetime of torment overcome.

And here you stand,
Through the test of time;
Poised, radiant,triumphant.
Free of the shackles that bound you
Free to pursue, freedom! contentment!

Life Redefined






the tapestry of my past brings to mind
colors both bright and dull
long forgotten memories
woven with shades crimson and black
pain runs deepest like tears of blood
splotches of black, my sorrow they hold
threads of blue, are seen here too
my arrogance that lead to my doom
green and brown so intertwined
speak of deception and jealousy blind
And over it all lays a mist of purple
The part of me untouched and true
And in focus I see an image
Of a great battle fought
A victory won, but a war lays ahead
And blinding white
Is the love that shines
Over a pit of deepest orange
My temptations to overcome
