beauty groans

 
cry a little and walk on
inside the sadness I am strong
gentle fractures of the heart
breaks me beautifully

love's scars gives me depth
I see truth in this
pain my teacher
cues the emotions
I feel everything

I'm grateful for this life
it has taught me many things
groaning within as if in childbirth
I come forth with a new dimension
fractal light shows the beauty I am

the hurt was worth it
I was becoming all the while
from the child I was
to the woman I would become
