Porcelain Lotus Flower

Poised and graceful

Observing all around me

Rising from adversity

Completely untainted

Emanating beauty

Love and hopefulness

Admiration worthy

In the eyes of others

Noble in intent

Longing to find myself

Overcome my past

To be renewed

Understand my desires and

See beauty in myself

Fulfilled and refreshed

Loved and desired

Open to the possibilities

Waiting to see what unfolds

Echoes of the past are fading

Ready for my future
