Gentle Heart

You used to not care what people think of you.

Now you’re hypersensitive. What happened to you?

You were brave and intuitive, a natural leader.

Self-aware yet selfless, instinctive healer.

Negative influences slithered in slowly.

Backstabbers tiptoed around you unknowingly.

Family members grew to become untrustworthy.

Some mentors were discovered to be disappointing.

All is not lost, you are still a believer.

Hope is not gone, continue being a dreamer.

One day you will learn to stand up for yourself.

Your voice will be heard as you break through the shell.

Your choices and behaviors maintain your strengths,

and guide you to achieve amazing lengths.

Preserve your original self, don’t relent.

What others think of you is irrelevant.

What matters the most is the life you create.

One day you’ll have a beautiful family to dedicate

your love, knowledge, wisdom, and protection.

Your greatest achievement will be your family’s connection.
