Where Strength Lies

Where Strength Lies

A Poem by A

There comes a point in your

Life

Where the tears

Will fall

The pain

Will take over

And

You

Just can’t be

Strong

Anymore

All your strength

The tricks

You played

To seem okay

The masks

You wear

To cover up

The pain

You feel

Until your

Alone

With the darkness

The demons

That seem

To take over

All of

What you once were

Strong

For

Seems pointless

You can’t be

Strong

The tears will

Fall

The mask

Seems to

Suffocate

You

And that

Can be

Done is

To let go

Breathe

And have

It

All be

Stripped

Away

Until your stuck

Staring

At the

Scars

You once

Concealed

The tears

you once

Wiped away

And

The strength

That you

Once

Believed

You

Had

Only to find

Out the

Real strength

Comes

When you’re

Naked

Crying out

Letting all

Your brokenness

Show

Through to

Others

Letting the

Pieces

Appear as

They truly are

That’s where strength

Real strength

lies
