    I Am, Always Was, Always Will Be, Even If You Don't See

    I am honest with myself.
    I trust my decisions.
    I take responsibility for my choices
    And my choices alone.
    Always did, always will do,
    Even if you don?t see.

    I feel however I wish to feel.
    When I?m hurt my heart is sad.
    When I?m ignored, I feel alone.
    When I?m raped, I feel ashamed.
    When my hopes and dreams are shattered, I grieve.
    Even if you pretend you don?t see.

    I feel angry when this happens,
    Because I forget it?s not my fault.
    When I remember I can?t prevent this happening,
    I don?t feel angry when it does.
    And I don?t live in fear,
    I never did, I never will.

    When I feel unconfident, unassertive and weak,
    That is okay.
    I am human and I like it that way.
    I forgive myself
    For not always knowing the answers,
    Or not knowing the right path.
    Who does?
    I was never perfect, I do not aspire to be.

    I have strength to endure,
    When someone hurts me.
    To show them a better way,
    Even if the do not see.

    It takes courage to stand up,
    To fight for what I deserve,
    For respect and equal value.
    Even if they don?t see.

    It takes bravery to finally bow out,
    To accept my efforts were in vain.
    To walk the rest of the way alone.
    Without the hurt, Without the fight.
    Even if you do not see.

    And should you wish to challenge me,
    My strength and courage will not falter,
    I will continue to show you,
    I will still be me.

    And all the while,
    Balancing the practical, financial & domestic responsibility of two
    And still have the energy, the spirit
    To bring a smile to my child,
    To lend an ear to listen
    So they do not have to fight
    For what they deserve.
    I am worth not changing for,
    I never did, I never will.

    I am trusting, I am understanding, I am loving.
    That is who I choose to be.
    I put my heart and soul into everything.
    The more I do,
    The more rewarding my life will be.
    To sacrifice myself, the risks are great,
    No fruit will come.
    But the reward of how I get there,
    Is where I place value.
    Always did, always will.

    I am a friend, I am a sister,
    I am a Madonna, I am a lover,
    I am a daughter, I am a mother
    Even when you do not want to see.

    As a true survivor knows
    I should never have felt a victim, I never will do.
    I was never weak, I never will be.

    And if one day, If you open your eyes,
    You will be humbled by what you see.
    And I will forgive you because,
    That is who I choose to be.
    And as always
    I will be proud
    Of just being me.

    I see you.
    To see a world in a grain of sand
    And a heaven in a wildflower.
    Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
    And eternity in an hour.

      I hear and see a person who accepts themselves. A beautiful soul. Loving, kind, caring and a sensitive woman. Who's strong, yet fragile. A poet, profound, smart and a very sweet woman. A wonderful mother, friend...... A person who's endured much suffering and pain, yet still loves others deeply. One who's learning to give that love back to self. May you look in the mirror each day and speak out loud, I love you, your good enough. Because you truly are. A woman who knows her voice matters.

      I'm so grateful to have met you on this journey called life. I'm so proud to have you for a friend LS. Thank you for being one of my teachers on this journey.

      Tomorrow is a new day. I believe in you!...Have faith in you. You matter, your voice matters. Bless you..... :hug::heartbeat:hug:

      I hope you'll write more poems.
