“Woman Impeded”

I am loud,

Brutally honest, so I am told.

I am love,

For my story has no end.

I am brave,

Pushing boundaries that once guarded me.

I am a wanderer,

Giving steppingstones to carve your own path.

I am a yogi

Breathing in possibilities and breathing out self-doubt.

I am wrong,

Hoping you make your own mistakes and not borrow mine.

I am happy,

hiding the pain of loss.

I am resilient,

For I never gave up on my roots.

I am proud,

Because I will always be his princess.

I am a mom,

Building a world I needed, when I was you.
