Finding Herself

She let the monsters get to her.

She became broken,

Broken into so many pieces not even he could put her back together.

Those monsters consumed her.

But, in time, she found her strength.

Those monsters inside her finally died.

She has broken free of the pain. 

Something entirely new came to life.

In losing everything...She found herself.

Indeed, monsters can most easily break us apart...but it's up to us to be able to find something to help us rise back up and conquer whenever they decide to return. I'm sure many have been down this road and it's not a fun journey when one loses themselves...believes they are not worthy of anything or anyone in life. We must believe in ourselves, our strength, we are survivors and we become warriors ready to face the same battle time and time again! Don't let darkness break your spirit...you're better than that and deserve anything you wish in this life. You will succeed and be happy with just the right amount of support and love in your corner...

Too many broken people out there, not enough help.
Some manage to pull through, some don't.
I suppose the monsters never really go away, we can only keep them at bay.

A beautiful story of perseverance through pain. Wonderfully written, my friend.

Thank you very much!

The poem starts in a melancholic way and ends with an encouraging and hopeful way.... It was short and very effective... Finding our "self" in a new way after getting destroyed and lost is itself a wonderful thing... Your poem speaks of hope through a new beginning... Hope can appear even in the midst of tragedy, we just have keep searching for it... Well done...

Sincerely

An interesting poem.
It appears to be about reincarnation. Well not quite figruativly.

Perhaps the only way to truely start anew is to give up on the old.
What I get from this poem is that 'Rebirth', sad as it may be, is not always a bad thing. Even if the path is dark and painful, the result is worth it.

Thank you.

Reincarnation...Rebirth...I never thought of using those words to describe it but that is exactly what I was going for! Your interpretation of my work is perfect and so well thought out.

Thank you for expressing your thoughts!

Hi Sydney
We all have moments when we are wounded and consumed by our inner struggles and we ourselves can become our worst enemy. For such a short poem it says a lot. I will read your story next. Blessings and keep up the good work.

A beautiful poem, sad at first but the end is a passionate, simple thing that fits just perfectly! I love how he reader can relate to it, and feel how it speaks to then. Wonderful work! Please keep it up!

I'm sorry that was supposed to say "the reader" not "he reader"
