in the ridges of my bones,
etched deep into my soul.
These scars and bruises
are very different,
because they are so close to who I am.

Be in love with the person in the mirror.
You have been through so much.
Be Proud.
You’re about to be blessed.
It’s going to scare you.
Trust the process.
Do you really know me,
If the smile is all you see,
And do you really feel me,
If you think I'm happy just to be.
Have you ever looked at me,
If you've never seen a tear.

Do you not see
How strong you are
All those times
The world
Has forced you to your knees
And still
You continue to rise

those eyes have seen so many places and that heart has felt so many things and yet you still smile at the darkest feelings and find expression in everything that's colored beautiful.
