Moment of RealizationA Poem by Kaitlyn RaifordWith your smile comes a glimpse of hope, and though I should I do not feel wrong. Instead I tighten my hands on this rope, and try my best to keep myself holding on.
I close my eyes and hold onto your smile... Onto your face and your gentle, loving soul. I know what we have will be good if we let. I just have to keep myself from letting go.
I have always done what everyone expects, and not what I truly want inside- But it's time for me to stop doing that, because it's worth more to show than to hide.
I should not care what others say, or even what the others may do. The only thing that should matter, is that I am here and happy with you.
You are very quickly opening my eyes to that. I was blind but am now beginning to see. To you I am eternally grateful- More than you could ever imagine me to be.
I am who I am and I will never change- I just have to learn to accept my flaws. And I believe, slowly, day-by-day That of that I will come to know. © 2013 Kaitlyn Raiford |
