{solsc} Strong. #sol16

The March Slice of Life Challenge

hosted by The Two Writing Teachers

Join us for a month of writing!

"You lift my weary head. You make me strong instead."

Words wash over my tired soul,

         

       repeating the promise of strength. 

    

Although the lyrics have moved on,

       tears stream down;  

Emotions bottled up release 

        in the solitude of the moment.

Exhausted from holding up the shield 

        of confidence and positivity

I drop the shield and stand, 

        allowing the promise of whose I am

Wash over my tired soul.
