The True Me

***The prompt was write a poem that reveals bits and peices of yourself. Much like a autobiography. I hope I reavled a little bit more about myself and met the challenge....





I am like a dove flying in the wind.

No, not really a bird,

But technically, I am a mammal.



I care and love a lot like a carebear,

But I am like a caveman, only I am a woman.



I am stuck in a cave by a powerful force.

It can be dangerous, but  deep inside the cave I have a secret weapon to break me free.



For I am slowly turning into a regular human being.

I am just finally learning I can step out of the cage.



Who knew facing your fears could be this scary like facing an addiction?

Good thing I have my secret weapon,

MY HEART.
