Poem of courage

in wafrica •  7 years ago 

Your lustrous warm eyes are too sadly kind to mask the meaning of your dreamy tale, your guarded life too exquisitely frail against the daggers of my warring mind.
It takes strength to fit in but it takes courage to stand out. It takes strength to conquer but it takes courage to surrender. It takes strength to stand alone but it takes courage to lean on a friend. It takes strength to survive but it takes courage to live.
I have prayed many prayers when no answer came, though I waited patient and long, but answers have come enough of my prayers to make me keep praying on. IMG_20180413_230107.jpgIMG_20180413_230158.jpg
