PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I used to try and hide the tears.

To cover up the pain and fear.

I left presence because I could not

face it at the time.

I am finally secure enough with who I am.

I have broken the mold I placed upon myself,

I grew wings and learned to fly.

I am stronger now than I ever was.

But this is in part because of you.

You made me stand tall.

So you won't see the person who I was back then.

I have walked out of the darkness carrying my own torch.

I will stand up,

I will be heard,

I will not bow down or give up.
