The courage behind your eyes

“The courage behind your eyes”

When I see you, I see courage behind your eyes.

The way you hide your daily struggles from the world through the courage that shines through your smiling eyes.

Your strength goes beyond anyone’s imagination.

This strength comes from a place that’s deep within you, and that is a thing of beauty.

If the world only knew what it was as like to walk in your shoes,then they would also see the scars of courage that are hidden within the soles of your journey.

And what it takes to hide this pain through your smile.

To also let them know that this is me, but not who I truly am.

The silence that walks behind you

Before this day, the silence was loud and could be heard through even the busiest day.

Then without warning, all that was left was the sound of the wind blowing through the trees.

Leaving you with a daily reminder of that person who now speaks to you through silence.

Asking yourself, how you didn’t hear the silence coming.

Even silence has its way of warning of its coming.

Now you’re only left with unanswered silence.

Trying everything you know possible to break the silence.

Maybe one day, you’ll say the right word that only the silence can understand.

The day I found my heart

The day I found my heart

After many years of searching for my heart,

I started to hear a second heart beat within me.

I’d ask myself, am I hearing things?

Then that’s when that still small voice became more audible through each heat beat.

Once I cleared my thoughts and became still,

I then realized that the second heart beat I was hearing, was God speaking to me and letting me know that my other half has been praying to meet me.

But the reason why I didn’t hear, was because life and my pride got in the way.

Now, I can hear the beauty of true love.

True Beauty

I think what makes a woman attractive is that she is godly and God fearing. Forget what society says about what makes a woman attractive. If men can be honest with themselves,I think the world will be a lot better . If I lose friends because of what I just said,oh well God knows my heart.

Once I returned to the room, I looked over and I saw the pen laying on top of the piece of paper that I had left on the table.

So when I sat down and picked up the pen,it was as if no time had pass.

So now it’s time to start writing again.

The day I met you in the mirror

Day after day

of walking pass this mirror

things didn’t seem right.

Like there was a piece

missing in my life.

But on this particular morning

I felt like this day was going to be

the day that would change my life forever.

So as I walked pass the mirror,

I turned and looked into it

as I always normally do.

But for whatever reason

today I saw something different.

I saw what I was missing!

And the thing that was missing,

was finally before my eyes.

So the closer I looked into the mirror

not only did I just see my reflection,

but I saw the other piece of my soul

that has been missing this whole time.

As I reached into the mirror,

It smiled back at me

and whispered my name.

The moment I heard my name,

It was like hearing it for the first time.

and now my name took on a new meaning.

Now I can finally say,

I no longer feel like a empty shadow

that everyone ignored.

So life now takes on a new meaning.

Now I finally feel what it is to be truly loved,

and to be finally understood.
