I can't tell you
what my hell has been like
but if the wrinkles
on my face
and the tears
from my eyes
could tell their story
you would weep for me
and groan in pain
for you would
be inspired by
my resilience,
moved by my courage,
amazed at my inner strength
and you would exclaim,
"Damn, that woman survived
all that crap!"
Always remember, no matter what crap you're going through, that beautiful lotus flowers grow in mud and a treasure lies under a mound of dirt.
