Silly little me,
Thinking I am built different
When I'm just like the rest,
I am too human

I have this heart in my chest
And a soul I cannot depress
Just a little bit here and there,
I too need to give it a rest

Silly little me,
Thinking I'm all unique
When life is about everything
And the very little things

I was so caught up
On looking through the bigger picture
When there's sunlight breaking
Among trees I'm yet to capture

Always all about the rapture
But never take a breather
Honey, I'll take care of you now
My dear me, you too need to lie down

I want to live my best life;
Getting back up, after I fall.
Forgiving myself, after I fail.
Laughing, when I make mistakes.
Being patient, when things take time to re-learn.
Because I have time;
To fall, fail, learn and get back up again.
I have time to live my best life,
Every day.

There she was.
In hiding.
Too hurt to face others.
Shattered.
The world around her fell apart.
Darkness.
God where are you?

She felt something inside.
Besides all this ugliness something else was happening.
She felt the need to live, to survive.
The light was within.
A melody in her head.
A song in her heart.
Seeping through the cracks of sorrows.
Reaching her core.

She was praying.
God, give me strength to love and trust again.
This world seems so unfair.
But am I not born for a reason?
A warm glow from within gave her light to see.
She saw handles to hold on to.
To find her way out.
And she bloomed.
Like a violet in the dark growing to the light.


People are like flowers
All in need of light and water
To bloom.
