Well. All is well.
My heart poured out
Laid out bare
Protected my heart for centuries
Always the hard life
The same cobblestone road
It’s always been me
The last one left
Unnoticed
But when I laugh,
They all turn
My curls waving at strangers
They all turned
I smile
He looks
Hiding in my shell, peeking to come out
Being truly alive doesn’t feel wrong
I can speak
My truth, my past
But I want to talk about my future
Where does this leave me?
I want to leave behind a tale
A woman not giving up
Above all who doubted her
I’ve doubted me too
I hope your mercy is in your pocket
By your heart
Have some faith in me
Love me silently
Or love me out loud
Always have faith in me.
