can you see the strength inside of you
you are the rock imbedded in the sandy soil not
swaying with self doubt whilst water washes over you
you are the sturdy tree in the forest
tall and solid that holds the canopy aloft
standing fast, nothing bending your resolve
but how shall I convince you; what words will
penetrate the rock that is you; for you are
stubborn as the water that tries to break it down
it's about belief - in yourself
it's about trust - in yourself
it's about optimism
breathe a little
do not preempt with sleepless nights
or days cast in shadows
what has not yet befallen you
seeing will be when it arrives
and not a moment sooner
never a moment sooner
