Getting Better

It took a lot of hard work,

It started with a heartbreak.

To all my flaws, I was so blind

The wish for a betterment, never came to my mind.

In these dusty old pictures,

Are my unpolished features

They’ve been calling out to me, ever since he left.

But now have I awaken

To the beauty I possess,

To the power that I carry,

And to know that love and light I seek, lie within me
