In this journey, love is not something to possess
But something to nurture
To let grow and evolve
Much like the clouds that once parted
Giving way to clearer, brighter skies
Evil intentions couldn't bear the purity of her heart
She learned to withstand the rain
A true rose
Her petals begin to open towards the sun
Standing proudly
A testament to what happens when one waits
Trusts, and allows the quiet beauty of God to work
She was never meant to stay on fire
The love we seek in the world starts within us
Be vulnerable, embrace heal, reclaim the soul
She returned unconditionally
to the things she once loved
She finally escaped back to herself
