I am a rock --
Steady, Constant, Reliable,
A foundation to sit on.
Stable, Enduring, Set,
Yet I can be moved.
Hard, Firm, Solid,
Yet I can yield.
Throw me, Beat me,
Cast me in flames...
I endure your torment.
Remaining Steady
To hold your weight.
Safe, Reliable, Secure,
Able to bear your burden.
I cast no judgment,
I speak to no others,
yet I absorb your pain.
Certain, Constant, Steadfast,
Lean on me and rest --
Then go face the world again.
I try and not cast judgement. I only wish more people were like that.
ReplyDeleteIt is hard. I wrote this poem about a week or so ago when I was feeling really strong and confident. I've had to look back at it several times since then to remember my own strength.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by and sharing your thoughts! I hope you have a wonderful week :)
