The un-hidden reflections of my heart

An un-hidden reflection of
what once was stares back at
me through the light of
dawn that can be seen from
the years that have passed
by me,reflections that once
were un-seen.

I once followed in the footsteps
of the life that was given to me,
never looking for anything more
but a life full of scorn and misery.
Happiness only to come as often as
the rain can be found in the desert,
my tears to be the only moistness
that seeped through the ground. A
blistering pain to leave me un-sound!

I have taken path's and written my
own life's story of love and heartbreak,
peace and confliction, uncertainty and
self esteem! Sometimes I am filled with
a happiness that can never be found again,
sometimes I have doubts that I will never
understand,in the end my life has been
written by my own hand.

I find my inner strength that was lost
to only me,another to find it giving me
security and defining the life that has
always been denied. These are the un-hidden
reflections of my heart! A story that
only I can explain of love and pain,the
dawn will guide my way!
