It’s never easy,
they say,
To confront the
worst of us.
It’s never easy,
they say,
After losing the
landslide of trust.
Courage to face
the unknown,
Hides but rises
when called.
Our Father, Son,
and Holy Ghost.
Will never let us
fall.
So alone, we face
the beast.
We understand the
game,
We
stand our ground,
Our
footing sound.
No
shame.
It’s hard to face
the unknown,
And leave
triumphantly.
Hard-fought
battles are the bane,
But gives us
light to see.
Out there on our
own,
Battered and scorned,
We arrive
reluctantly.
Standing divided
and torn…
From whom we were thought
to be.

That definitely hit me square in the heart and mind! To me, it sounds like a call to action to never give up and keep moving forward no matter what stands in your way! ~ Little Bird
