The Dove

About my counselor who helped me in alot of ways

 The Dove

When we began to talk,

I felt like I was not able to walk.

It was very scary at first ,

But after a few sessions I began to burst.

Having fear is so hard,

I always have my guard.

Overtime, I began to get comfortable,

But still very vulnerable.

Trust was hard for me due to so much pain,

However I began to feel so insane,

So I started slowly to trust again.

It has been a long journey,

Days of feeling unworthy,

But then I began to get sturdy.

My life has been a rollercoaster in so many ways,

To the point I never knew if I was coming or going on certain days.

You brought me closer to God,

I was so amazed, thankful that it never seemed odd.

You showed me friendship,

Through all the hardship.

You have healed me with the help of the lord in so many ways,

In just a few days.

Then you continued and still are healing me, 

I am able to truly see.

I feel so loved, accepted and many more,

My body is at peace no more war.

You have taught me so much,

 I love you a bunch.

There was a time I wanted to take my own life,

But together we threw away the knife.

My heart is no longer broken,

You were the missing token.

You are like an angel sent down from above,

Full of so much love,

This is why your name is the Dove.

You truly showed me the light,

Now I can begin to shine bright,

Without a fight.

I am a survivor,

No longer a passenger in my life,

I took control and now the driver.
