The Unveiling

I was told My tears were crock tears. Injured wounds Bled and cried inside Still I heard: You and I are free Held by three: You, me, spirit Who is it? Gender fabulous Gender blind Hurting womankind? Cast a smile No crowd a frowning Clear your mind Hold firm to winnings Take fresh breaths Take no hostages That last breath Will be of courage Murderers Called out by The Source Serves one Force- Redeeming our lives. *

Dear Iris, From all the pain we experience in our life time, we draw an inner strength, for we are the survivors those who were born to excel forward, those chosen to over come the obsticles placed before us no matter what the cost except our souls, and spirit or values. We must continue! We are the ones kicked aside, yet we thrive, the challenaged but we strive, the unappricated, yet we focus on what really matters and we get it done, we are the survivors, and I love how you say it, cheri
