Aftermath
a poem for putting yourself together again
she found herself amongst it all
but not before she had to fall
to find peace when you are at war...
is something one should be grateful for
*
never did she think this would be her path
what would she do in the aftermath?
after the fighting had ceased...
would she find that inner peace?
*
when her insides were ripped out
and she was floating and bobbing about
she had to learn how to be brave
to put herself back together again
*
piece by piece, she would see what would fit
for putting yourself back together... there is no kit
some pieces she decided to leave
for she didn't need them all, you see
*
when the war was over... she learned something new
that she could be a different version than she used to
she could put herself back together however she enjoyed
this time she'd make sure there was no void
*
there would be no pieces that she didn't need
and when she is done... there will not be any reason to bleed
she made herself into someone new in the aftermath
this time SHE would be strong enough to last
