Compressed and defined by Other's restrictions
left little room for her to breathe
Suffocated and constricted, she
imagined herself to be
joined by a fierce companion.
Not too fierce, just enough
to walk beside her
and channel ferocious self-love
as she walked past
in her gown of glorious roses.
Not flinching in self consciousness
nor cowering from fear of apprasial
she rose to her true stature
in full, unedited glory.
The path to self-acceptance
is worth the journey
so go there!
Dare to be authentic.
When you live in your truth
full color of your choosing
blood tingles
and destiny smiles.
It's then that you realize
how wonderful and satisfying
life can be; every second,
minute, hour and mile. ~Kat
