She Will Not...

She will not have 
her silence corrupt...

all truth hidden in words
that are yet to be said...

the feeling remains...
somewhere in 
the distance...

your eyes tell her all
she needs to know...

this divine magnetic pull
heighten awareness...
call it what you will...

this is not about blame...

...this is about resilience
reclaimed...

...the magic she was born
with...and the path she has...
walked tirelessly...

...be honest and bold
...to not repeat the pain...

this inner forgiveness...
this blessing...
this resilience...

...she will not have her
silence...

...her silence corrupt...
