Notes About The Poem

Protect your soul

Dark thoughts attack at will.
Be brave and fiercely fight them off.
Trust the sun will return.

This is so true in my life I've had to fight to get through some dark patches. My motto for survival was " knocked down many times, never knocked out " and a band i wear " never give up" Hugs <3

Seems we might need a turtle's carapace to get through life ~

Strength in the dark places is hard but well worth the fight.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger ~ might be some truth in that after all.
