Stronger is How I See You

I haven't written a poem in a long time. Woke up, had a cup of hot coffee, and started to write...

Stronger is How I See You 

Do as I say, not as I do, she says through her actions as she beats down the weak.

Selfish motivation and personal gain feed the need to be seen; oh so vain. 

Forgetting right and wrong and the scale of measure.

Treasuring nothing about a friendship that was once strong and true. Not even the fact that they were once a family will do.

Glue that held the soul together has broken down, leaving the heart on the ground. 

Shadows and pain swallowed that heart, breaking it apart, left to mend. Lend a hand when a hand is wanted; most of the time it is out of reach.

Can you teach someone to see their worth? Birth of a new relationship, trusting and letting the heart love again?

When will it be time to close out the past and use it as a lesson moving on. Gone are the days where you will be dragged down in the ground. 

Sound of the birds chirping outside the window awaken a smile and a lighthearted notion, that you can be loved again in a more true fashion. 

The road block that stops you from sharing your soul can be torn down if you move past your frown and memories of what was promised and has been revoked. Choked and suffocated by what could have been and what is no longer. 

Stronger is how I see you. Look through my eyes to see who you are. Far from a broken person; opposite of unloveable; destine to be great.

Make the life you live special and whole. Full of all the sweetest things that were robbed from you the first time. Find your peace and reach for the stars. Far from over is your life as long as you try to give back and connect. 

Rectify the wrong; let go; pick up that heart left in the dust on the ground and surround yourself with beauty. 

You deserve it.
