My Flickering Light

Resides deep within my soul.

At times …turning into a flame.

Luminating my way.

Creating my direction.

Brave am I.

No questions asked.

Where once I teetered , along my way.

Now I stand firm, grounded and courageous.

Beautiful being that I AM.

I see me with all my fragilities.

Those are what make me even more beautiful.

Sweetness of my being.

In my darkness and my light.

I see my gifts in both.
