Rising from the Shadows…
I used to stand in front of the mirror,Staring at a face that I didn’t know,Fingers tracing lines I wished would disappear,Eyes searching for a spark that refused to show. I heard whispers in my mind,Telling me I wasn’t enough,Each word echoing through my soul,Making every breath feel tough. I hid behind a smile,Pretending I…

The Servant King.
A leader, they say, is someone strong,But strength isn’t shouting when things go wrong.It’s not in the power, the titles, the fame,A true leader knows it’s not just a name. A leader isn’t the one who stands tall,But the one who kneels when you stumble and fall.They don’t just give orders and walk away,They’re there…

True Leader
A leader isn’t the loudest voice,Doesn’t stand on high with an air of choice.They don’t walk around with a heavy hand,But kneel down low to help you stand.

I’ve been down this road before,Where love feels like a battlefield,And every scar tells a story,Of promises broken,Of trust shattered,Of dreams that turned to dust. I gave my heart,Like a gift wrapped in hope,And watched as it was taken,Then tossed aside,As if my love wasn’t enough,As if I wasn’t enough. I craved connection,Yearned for that…

Silent Truth.
Every morning, I rise with the sun,Hoping today’s the day I’ve finally won,Over the shadows that whisper my name,Over the guilt, the regret, the blame. They tell you, “Forgive, and you’ll find peace,”But no one speaks of the battles that ceaseTo rage within, where scars still weep,Where the nights are long, and I barely sleep.…

Forgiving Yourself.
How will I Forgive me? How?A tender whisper deep within my soul,Am hoping That today, maybe today,The mirror will reflect a lighter heart,A mind no longer bound by chains of regret and guilt. Yet, as the sun rises high,TI can’t stop myself from blaming me of what I did,Painful Memories and thoughts cling in my…
