though the power of the storm came and went the damage is done
done to her what countless others have done
fallen
she split from the strength and the weight of what she was carrying too heavy to carry
some of her remains strongly rooted and still alive
broken on the outside
showing weathered age and years of life
because she fell, she opened up
she has a lot left to share
though a part of her has fallen, it creates strength in other areas
where her life thrives... where it is still growing...
you will always see where she fell one can only guess how she fell... something happened along the way when she opened up though she didn't want to
many years
all those years were not wasted time
all the growth gave her strength to withstand so much
... share so much
just because she has fallen doesn't mean she can't go on, but sometimes it takes someone else to take the time and shape her into another purpose
that is fresh and new
(she'll be sharing some at the upcoming October event)
