Speak Your Truth
She has a hard time
finding her voice,
her parents didn't
allow it
She struggles with this
everyday, surrounded by
judgemental people in her life,
their questions, more like accusations
it takes a lot
for her to open up
to anyone, she finds herself
alone, a lot
That can be really hard sometimes,
she longs for things,
but doesn't really know what
they are
Every day she has to
remind herself,
she made it this far ...
Be Brave

Indeed, Je. I believe we choose the waters we're in. When you're too tired to swim, dog paddle. And when you're too tired to dog paddle, float.
Hang tough. You're brave.
Hang tough. You're brave.

In my head I changed all the pronouns to he and his, then it made perfect sense, to me :-)
I really connected with this poem, thank you :-)
