POEM OF AUTHENTICITY

Finding My Way

Friends make all the difference.

How are you so dear When you lend me your ear Don’t worry if I shed a tear

Minutes turn to hours with confidence and trust As laughter and relief unfolds, my stresses turn to dust

Fluttering moments align and shelter in protective cadence High step marches never break their line or jump a fence Relaxed in a rhythm with no need to make sense

Given time, becoming me Finding my way to be free

I’m breathing a little deeper these days. Thank you for supporting my journey and reading my poem.
