MY WAY

In life there are so many things that one goes through which either make or break you. In my continent, as a woman, to survive, we are only allowed to bend but not break.

In my life,

I have laughed and I have cried.

I have loved and was loved in return.

I have lost, and I have found.

I found love, and lost love.

Love found me, over and over again.

I knew where I was going, where I wanted to be.

I lost my way there several times - I arrived.

I lost myself, only to find me once again.

 

In my life,

I have hurt, and have been hurt.

I have laboured and I have lost.

I have said many things that were best left unsaid.

I have left many things unsaid, that should have been said.

I’ve experienced many of life’s trials and tribulations.

And through it all I still remained true to me.

I have done many things I probably shouldn’t have done.

Risked it all, lost it all; only to find it all once again.

 

In my life,

I have worshiped and I have prayed.

I have found God, lost God, lost me.

But God, through it all, has never once lost me!
