Strength

Strength is like the oceans waves.

Sometimes they crash

Against the hardened sand

Sometimes they fold

Delicately onto the shore

Strength is like a tree’s trunk.

A growing tree

Is small and moves when the wind pushes it

An old tree

Is thick and immovable

Strength cannot be found everywhere,

It is in a certain kind of human

One that fights negativity

One that says no to sadness

It grows in those who know themselves

One that trusts their instincts fully.

Strength can be found in me.
