Feminine

She has strength hidden behind the sweet . . . She has a will of a 
warrior concealed inside her compassionate heart. She guided others 
to see the light, but she herself, saved her self from drowning. 

And while she was the sun for many, she was her own moon; 
her face reflecting the light of her burning bright soul. She
brightened up her dark nights with all her iridescent glow, when not
a single star would light a candle for her.

She was her own moon; reflecting the sun-like soul within herself.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Thank you Richard! It's only in darkness that light has its meaning. Poet is that darkness that gives poem a meaning. :)
