honor yourself: a bone sigh....

a bone sigh....

lifting the cover of shame and self doubt,
she dropped it on the ground.
stepping into the light she
slowly lifted her head.
this is who i am.
and i am here.
and i am enough.

the light warmed her face
and her heart.

it was hers

“they took. they invaded. they pushed. they violated. in so many different ways. a lifetime of pushes and takings and making her feel less than valuable. sitting back, she began to see it. how it had gone on and on. and in seeing it, she began to realize - it was up to her now to shout, to whisper, to sing, to move and to believe in her value. no more taking that from her. it was hers. no more giving it away. it was hers. proudly, with strength and with knowing, she held it. she lived it. she became it.”
