ONE
dance with sorrow
when it is your partner
when you cannot
keep time with hope
Step into the arms
of what your heart
is facing
and embrace it
until it lets go.

TWO
Scars
dot the dark spaces
of her mind
like constellations
in a chalkboard sky
each a story
she fights
to rewrite
into a victory.

THREE
Wash the sadness
from your soul
in those whispered waves
of hope
the quiet voice that knows
how deep your strength is.
