My Jen

Life has not always
Been kind

Days you thought would
Never end

Cried more tears than you
Thought possible

But

You held on to
Your pride

Knowing better days
Were ahead

Knowing God hadn’t
Forgotten you

Today

I see you with
Self confidence

And

Even though times are
Still trying

Your determination
Your heart
Your compassion and empathy
For others

Are still burning
Brightly

Your future will be brighter
My friend

Because you never
Surrendered
Because you believe in
Your own self worth

I love the fire I see
In you!
