Your Best Days Are Here To Find You

You were once a faint light fighting stormy clouds You stood alone in innocence among a rowdy crowd Watched in disbelief as things turned upside down But you walked away, knowing destiny is waiting to be found You held a brave face for your child The fray of emotions inside you didn't fade your smile Your strength was not how you were belligerent Your strength was in how you took in the pain Suffocated it inside you and carried a brave face Kept your feet on your God-given place Whatever was stolen, broken or lost? Didn’t take away the faith you treasured the most Your wonderful, was not escaping sadness Your wonderful, was defeating its badness Your best days are not behind you Your best days are here to find you (Dedicated to my cousin based on her story)

Very touching about someone who was grounded and secured.
