Wilma Neels Poet Free verse

'twisted Segments'

Twisted segments
Somehow floated together
The missing pieces of a long forgotten puzzle
Found their home 

Faded pictures brought back to life
Each telling their own story
Do they make you smile today? 
I know it has been a while

The warmth of memories
Chasing negativity away
It is okay to start again
It is okay to lift your head up high
No one will judge you
No one dare to judge you

They never walked in your shoes
They never felt what you felt
This was and still is your journey
The choices you make 
Are ultimately yours 


You are a warrior

Sometimes twisted segments 
Paints a brilliant picture 

Even to the ones who stand on the outside
