I Am Who I Am

I am the stillness amidst the storm, A heart that's weathered, tattered, and worn. The echoes of chaos shaped my refrain, Yet I rise with purpose, through loss and pain. I am the seeker, unbound, unchained, A voyager of healing where scars remained. From shadows of anguish, I’ve forged my light, With courage to stand in the darkest night. I am the love I once had to find, A gentle soul with an overthinking mind. The moonlight to guide, the quiet reprieve, For I am the hope I choose to believe. I am the child who danced in the rain, The teen who faced heartbreak’s aching refrain. The woman who learned, through trauma’s weight, To carry herself with resilient grace. I am the laughter, the tears, the fight, The voice that whispers, “You’ll be alright.” With a tribe by my side, my chosen ground, I’ve built a life where love abounds. I am who I am, unbroken, free, The story I’ve written belongs to me. A daughter of stars, a keeper of fire, Forever becoming, forever higher.
