Dear self, in the depths of your soul, I see the strength that makes you whole, A strength that defies the venomous bite, Of hurtful words that haunt your night.
You’ve dared to love with all your might, To see the good in their darkest light, But know, my dear, it takes courage to stay, When their words try to tear you away.
In their ignorance, they fail to see, The radiant spirit that resides in thee, A warrior of love, you proudly stand, Defying their hate with an outstretched hand.
For love knows no boundaries, no bounds, It lifts you up when their hatred surrounds, You’re brave enough to love unconditionally, And that strength is a testament to your nobility.
But hear me now, in this spoken word, Your worth and dignity will not be blurred, For the slurs they hurl, the names they speak, Are not a reflection of the love you seek.
They are but whispers of a broken soul, Projecting their pain, trying to control, But you, my dear, are resilient and true, A symbol of love, unyielding and blue.
So, stand tall, embrace your truth, For their ignorance cannot define you, You deserve a love that’s gentle and kind, A love that uplifts, not leaves you behind.
Know that you are worthy, deserving of more, Than the hurtful words that pierce to the core, You hold within you a power untamed, To rise above, your spirit unashamed.
Love yourself fiercely, with all your might, And let your love illuminate the darkest night, For in your strength, you’ll find the way, To heal, to grow, to love another day.
You are resilient, you are brave, A beacon of love, unyielding and grave, So, embrace your truth, let your spirit soar, And know that love will always be worth fighting for.
Great post. Thought provoking
