Called OutA Poem by Choosing Life
I found my heart,
Lying in ashes…
Discarded by past madness
And false interventions of care
Left it beating outside myself
Somewhere amidst
Lies that were sold
I bought ..
For a price too high…
I found my heart
There covered in darkness
Hurt had cost me so much
Because I just couldn’t understand
The Divine plan
And why this road was rocky
Hard…
I felt the past generations’ weights on my shoulder
And the future generations freedom calling me
To find a Way…
To be strong…
Not in the sense of not shedding tears
Or never showing emotion
But the type of strength that calls one to ponder
The kind of strength that says be True to Self
Love you among all imperfections,
Because even those things make you beautiful…
I heard them calling me to be strong enough to find myself…
Laying on the shelves of shame
And halls of guilt…
Carrying out a sentence for a crime I had not committed.
I was being told to set myself Free…
So I found my heart
Ready to be wrapped up in my loving thoughts,
Willing to be nurtured
By the Grace that had been given unto me…
