Yet.........poem

I sit today all grown up
a woman yet a child,
reaching toward a higher self
yet so much hurt compiled.

Years of giving till it hurts
leaving myself in the rain,
wanting just to fill my cup
yet my substance ony drains.

I am not a warrior or a
champ in a fight,
yet I am strong and confident
I have strength and I have might.

The struggles that you gave me
only prove to make me wise,
no longer will I be defeated
being trapped by all your lies.

Peace has come to remind me
that I am still in this race,
given another chance again
God has sent his grace.

I tilt my head upward
and smile to the sky,
no more will I sit in wonder
asking questions why.

I'm taking my heart and soul
and wrapping them with care,
going to find my truth again
with love left yet to share.

    Very inspiring to relate to. I know the feeling like you have nothing left to give. When I got out of a relationship in New Zealand I felt the exact same way. I felt I had nothing left to give. That was 9 years ago and I had loved again. I am back at that step once again but sometimes there is a different kind of love to embrace. Love for what you have and holding on to that little piece that is left to foster love or support for yourself. Like a kefir grain, or a vinegar mother, as long as you have just a little bit left, you can feed and nurture it to grow back again. Lovely poem.
