Silent Bloom

the quiet power of becoming

Beauty was a term that never resonated.

They say it is found from within,

But I was a storm–

Full of terrifying thunder and constant rain.

.

Pleading to blossom like the others,

Yet, I did no work.

.

Beauty is a term that now has a deeper meaning,

A term that resonates more than anything I’ve ever felt.

A divine power.

My storm still remains.

But that scary thunder?

Well, she became a striking lightning.

And that rain?

She helped me blossom into something no words can fully describe.

.

Like a cherry blossom,

I took my time,

Found my energy,

And finally bloomed–

Into someone beautiful.
