Goodbye Yesterday

Gone are the days I am invisible Owning my voice Owning my beauty Damned if it ever happens again Beckoning forth my inner child Yearning to heal her..ashamed it has taken too long Empty heart filling up with strength, hope and courage You belong again, I smile Echos of the ghost's words which damaged our soul Soon begin to fade crossing between hues Turning from shades of black..to purple..to red..to yellow Eager to walk hand in hand, no longer hidden Remberance of the child I once was Dancing in the rain baptizing the blossoming woman I am becoming Accept this now my sweet You belong again, I smile
