Usually, I'm comfortable in my own
Skin,
Whatever I'm not secure about,
The solution is to conceal
A time such as this has come
No matter how much I try to
Conceal,
You pull me out so violently before
A mirror,
To see the empty spaces pleading to
Be filled
To see the more in "That's
manageable"
I say "oh this looks great!"
You shut me up with not yet but for
Now, it's just manageable
Dancing in my halls of wishful
thinking,
But You were sent to pull me into
The hard, harsh and cold reality
To see more,
To say more,
To do more,
To move more,
More intentional,
To be more
It's not comfortable
But I sense growth.

Author's Note🌺
Just in case you were wondering what
HADIYA means, Its Swahili for "Gift".
Lol yeah I don't know why but I just
love African languages, to an extent
languages in general .
Either way back to the main business 😂.

Different things and people motivateus to go places we will normally not
go or things that sound outrageous
but most times, regardless of how
tough it gets, growth creeps in with
time.
*No need for people who will feed
your ego.☺
