You have never been

Powerless,

It has only appeared

To be so…

Your life thus far

has not been wasted,

It has been

A refining of self;

The tuning of your heart

Like a priceless

Violin

With self-love

And self respect

Strung so precisely,

That no matter

How powerful

The force applied,

The universe hears only

The most heart-stirring

Melody~

Bringing even

The coldest heart

To tears.

You have never been

Without purpose

You have chosen, until now

To be blinded

To your own ferocity.

You can have

And be

Everything you desire…

Believe this truth.

Be fierce.

~Shelly~
