The quiet, shy girl emerges

      At a loss of words to say.
Silence internal speaks volumes. My
eyes dance a merry jig.

      Open my voice to scream out.
Hello, goodbye. Did anyone hear? Calling
out to vibrate all that needs air.

      Carefree are the thoughts. The
anxious moment that craves a dream,
a story. How to express?

      Forever seems to fade when spoken
from your lips. A lie that quakes
my very existence. How did I let you
control, manipulate for so long?

       Oh I stare. The eyes drip
deeply. The water creases over stone. Cold,
pale yet enduring.

       A tiny giggle erupts inside
soul. Crawling slowly. Staggering for a
secure support system. Jehovah is there.

   I survived because of Jehovah's promises.

      One day at a time the quiet, shy
girl emerges. Express the love inside.
Boiling. Tied. Bonded to who past was
but pressing to the new, modern woman.

       I speak a thousand words with
one look. Did you understand?
