Sound Strength

You are safe and sound,

you must know this, first.

Because it is you that, although

have gone through the worst,

are made

of

a core more potent than steel,

that protects and surrounds you

when the dark gets near.

There’s a strength within you,

built long ago.

It began with your past,

and was deepened by Joe.

So if there’s nothing right now

that you seem to really know,

please understand, with certainty,

that your strength will carry you

and continue to

grow.

I love you.
