It was pitch black
I could not see
wandering through the dark
blinded by the shit surrounding me
everywhere I went
seems things didn't quite
work out
toxic relationships
No shadow of a doubt
times I would holler
occasional good reason to shout
But no body heard me
I continued crying out loud
Internally
Entangled and strangled
gripped by fear and shame
Branches bending in the storms of my life
Pure stress...more strife
Dawn arrived like the unfolding of a flower
I heard a whisper
I am a seed
said one day I'd grow into a mighty tree
that day I woke from my slumber
realizing...all along
the Most High was there supporting me!
