Hey there my fellow poets! Blessings and greetings to you all for a prosperous new year. Life has been pretty rough for me since I last posted but nonetheless, as always with God's mercy and grace I've persevered. I'm finally at a point where I can start posting again. I so miss being on here and reading everyone's works. I hope that everything is going well for everyone. Let's keep the inklove flowing!

Where Strength Lies

CATEGORY

Views: 691

Humbled by his presence

Honored, yet in awe

Of his ability to deal with

A person so broken

Despite imperfections and flaws

A dear friend once said to me,

"The strength of a man is in

The heart of a strong woman."

How can this be if I am broken?

If truth be told, one can only be

As strong as the one

Who supports thee.

While fighting battles of temptation

Courage and hope

Became our inspiration

As heart beats syncopate

Each touch regenerates strength

As embraces restore the

Power to our souls.

Tears of joy and pain

Seep through our pores

Solidifying a foundation

Denser than concrete.

Disagreements that became

Par for the course only

Added to the mix

Allowing broken links

Of the past to be fixed.

Where strength lies within us

Is as clear as my mirrored reflection

So until the end of time

As life is to be

His strength in me

Is as much as mine is in he.
