Before I...

Posted on 10th Oct 2020 by rohit kumar

Before I became strong, I knew what it was like

To be weak,

How difficult it is to love yourself,

To find the wholeness that you seek.

 

Before I knew the light,

I have had my fair share of darkness, too,

Where my world fell into a hopelessness

And I didn't know how to get through.

 

For I have known the tears it takes,

The courage to stand up again,

When you are broken down and bruised

And you know nothing but the pain.

 

Before I was who I am now,

I was someone I didn't want to be.

I was lost, battered, and defeated,

Before I knew how to be me!
