Resiliance

I am here

I have much to say

I will start dreaming again

I have been through much in my years

I know more is to come

But this season is calm

This season will be different

It will be as unique as the leaves

Falling from a tree in fall

This season is for me

This season is healing

I am seeing all the resiliance that has developed

It encircles me

All the choices I have made

Good and bad

It has made me who I am

Resiliant as fuck

It is in my veins, in my blood

I speak for me

I speak for them

I stand in the present

Many watch and wait

They wait for me to fall

They wait for me to fail

I will not be bound to what they say

I will not be bound to what was said about me

It is their opinion

No one knows my heart

No one knows the struggle

No one understands me

And I am more than okay with that

More than okay with being different

Okay with being the black sheep

It is a role, I know very well

It does not define me

They chose to not see me

I can not force them anymore

I can not be what they need me to be

It is against every fiber in my being

I will be who I am

I will probably stand alone

I have all along

I will be unapologetically me

I will rise above it all

I will be resiliant
