Confessions of a Good Girl: A Poetry Collection

I have learned

Letting go
You have
served Me well

I have learned
To love myself
To value me

I have learned
I am worthy
Of love
Just because I am

I have learned
It's safe for me
To stand in my
Own power
To stand up for
My beliefs

I have learned
It's safe to be
Authenticity me
that being open
Is bravery
and tearing down walls
Takes strength
that I now know I have

I have learned
to bare my soul
Those that love me
Love me anyway

I have learned
that I show others
How to treat me
And that I deserve
Kindness and respect
And love
I deserve the best

I thank all
that I have been through
You have served me well

New lessons
and new dawns
await me

My fire
the embers slowly
Reigniting
Smoke curling
through tierd limbs
Propelling my
Forward momentum

I search the darkness
For the next right path
Blindly following my compas
I march on
