Diamond Souls
Bare footsteps align
with a solid path
newly taken
Shadows of the past
are now bereft
In stillness, she allows
for her spirit to rise
to new heights;
her old pain
can no longer be felt
Envious naysayers
dulled senseless with
envy and spite
lower themselves
to permanent depths
Crab claws can't reach
Illspoken soured voices
exit the garden of the mind
For in sacred isolation
alchemy makes diamonds.
