(Honouring everybody,dissolving barriers )
PRIDE
Pride in my existence
Pride in my authenticity
Pride that I found myself
From  depths within me…
Pride that I embraced the new me
With a warmth I never let
myself feel before
Pride that I stood up as an armour
For the new me
Pride that I protected myself
With all my might that I
Could smile freely again
Pride that I let myself
free again
To be me, to live this life
With a contented smile
Pride that I never let to be bound
To the barriers someone else has created
Pride that I found my own wings,
the strong beak and feet that can
break the cages  and fly free again
