I look into the distance and I
see a figure
Standing in the murky fog
Unable to determine anything
about what I am seeing
Getting frustrated with squinting
and guessing
Finally impatient with myself I
start moving forward
And it seems as though no matter
how far I walk
Or fast I run the figure never
seems to get closer
Finally as I inch forward I
realize that figure is me
Nothing determined about the
situation except that is my face
Through trials and tribulations
I see myself clearer
I’m finally starting to become
who I was meant to
Now I am standing right in front
of me
Staring myself in the eyes
Saying nothing, just taking it
all in
Next thing I know I’m looking two
me’s
One is so young looking
Nothing but scars and bruises
Words markered all over the scars
and bruises
The other me seems to have a suit
of armor on
And I am watching as the sky
opens up around me and pelts me with things
Watching my face I see that
nothing is affecting me
I am being beaten to a pulp and
still I stand strong
Nothing can break me
I see that this is who I am to
become
A strong individual who will not
break no matter what the world throws at me
Someone who will find her inner
peace everytime
Someone who knows that she can do
what ever she sets her mind to
People, places, or situations
will no longer bring me down
I will beat any and whatever
challenge is placed in front of me
I will accept everything that
happens in my life and see the positive
No more negative or toxic
connections
