My words are who I am – v2

My words are who I am,
Raw and authentic,
A window into my soul,
My thoughts, my living spirit…
 
My words are who I am,
The essence of my being,
My struggles, my joys,
All that is within me…
 
My words are who I am,
Words flow like living water,
My words, God’s words, well up,
They rise from my eternal spirit…

fear, triumph – v2

fear, triumph

opportunity, dread,

the open mic calling

for me to share

to take a risk

with my children

the words I have written

the nouns, the verbs

grabbed from the ether

to speak aloud

the words written

gifted to me
