Growth

Thoughts staggering slowly Resisting the release Why do i now struggle When the past flowed so free Have I lost my touch My talent gone through time Who have I become A thoughtless dolt Where is all the passion The strength within my mind Where is that voice that spoke Screaming out my truth Have I lost my way with time Changed too much No longer who I was But who am I just now A wife and now a mother I watch my daughter grow To her I'll give my strength And help her fight the world I may not be the girl I was But maybe it's ok The woman I've become today She'll learn her own way I'll find new words And I'll teach myself new ways For my dear sweet child All challenges I will face My daughter full of spirit The warrior goddess brought to life May you grow with passion And speak for all to hear
