believing in self
Individuality
freedom to be me

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.

         for as I look inside of me
         I see the woman I'm aspring to be
         what you see is what is there
         in all the faults and goodness
         is what I have to share


Good writng.right to the point.

I speak
but the words escape your lips
you smile
yet laughter flows through me
you mirror my movements
or is it I that mirror you?

A Wonderful truthful piece......
