Place of ChangeA Poem by Lakshmi Ramesh
All her life she's felt incomplete
All her life she's felt unsure Living amongst the shadows' feet Where many problems she had to endure Knew she had to come to light Or she can't fight the demons like a shark Knew she had to prove her might To herself so she doesn't feel so dark And then she found a new place A place to start afresh A place where she can show her grace A place where it's okay to be a mess Welcomed she felt with open arms Never had she felt so accepted It made her feel like she could reach the stars Maybe now she'd get the life she wanted All kinds of people she met Fun, insane and caring They gave her an opening to let her grow They let her find her calling Often some questioned her capabilities But it didn't make her weak Because there were so many other amenities That the rest gave her to make her chic Never can she ever forget the beauty of that place Or ever go back to her old dark space Thanks is too small to express the gratitude she feels To those angels that helped her broken soul heal
