Optimism
Necessitate Through The Storm
Shattered
Like Pieces Of Glass
Laying On The Pavement...
Imperceptible Bruises,
Visible On My Heart,
But It Won't Stop beating...
My Mind Is Racing
But My Body Stands Soporific
I Put My Pride To The Side,
And Let My Ego Face My Fears...
Although I Am A Little Afraid,
I Still Trust My Journey.
Even While Hurting,
Something Tells Me, That I Can Take The Pain,
Just Like The Sand Takes InThe Rain...
I Know That This Is Tough,
But I Just Can't Give Up...
No One Told Me,
This Is For Me, But Undoubtedly,
I Will Succeed, This I Do Believe.
Even On My Bad Days
There Are Better Days Ahead...
I Can Only Imagine
What The Future Holds For Me...

Ah, Lonzo, finding the strength to face each day, to rise and do it all again can see like a superhuman effort, but we do it because we have the will to survive. This is uplifting and inspirational. Blessings on the days now and those to come. Heartfelt poetry.
Just like all the rest of us with a way to keep us on our toes and to do what we need to do whatever we need to do. Good job.
So uplifting & flawlessly-exceuted! You did that! 💪🏾💕
