'who' Was the Whisper

who are you was the question whispered- so, I have pondered that I am a girl who has traveled a tangled path with many dips and turns and twists along the way a labyrinth journey it has been and I have seen the bottom of dark pits had to crawl back up to the top and it was God's hand that helped each time . . . as I stood tall and began anew- oh, now my pen drips blood as I write of my sadness with tears but dear reader . . . these tears of sorrow- do not mean that I am weak for I have inside of me an unfathomable strength my journey has brought me to a place of tranquility and serenity and peace . . . and I feel that to reach paradise on earth one must have suffered in their life - ___________________________ April 5, 2016 (Edit) Poetry/Free Verse/'Who' was the whisper Copyright Protected, ID 16- 1218-360-0 All Rights Reserved.

The pen with blood and tears is a weapon we use to stave off those emotions we wish to rid ourselves of. Your pen is mighty and you are the farthest from weak. Your strength is in every word you write.

Tears are a way of expressing how the heart is feeling. Let them flow. Yes, the strength within gets you through all moments in life. With God's help. You are an inspiration to us all. Thank you for being here, for being You. ~ Brandy
