( – for Belinda )
***
We have our heart and soul
Tested at every walk of life
For some we might bestow
Always a sense of vocal strife
~
Though that seems the easy road
There are many who choose to endure
We are magnificent to behold
When our humanity can be clear
~
I look upon you in your eyes
I see some pain so welled inside
Yet buried is that hurt; so wise
To give yourself to others wide
~
I only sense genuine delight
When by certain quiet chance
Your ills might be less a fight
While inner peace is your elegance
~
Strive on and continue, while we our duty
Your eternal strength, we see only beauty.

Mission accomplished, hope fulfilled. I am very thankful you opted to write this piece. Still, I’ll never be able to adequately explain it. I grow a little more anxious for my tests, but if I re-read posts, it reiterates that I am indeed not alone. Thank you for being a part of that.
