      Flower - A Poem For A Recovering Friend

Flower

You are not dirty
You are purer than snow
What you did to survive
Allowed you to grow

Now you are growing
Brighter each day
Shining a light
Following the way

Sometimes it will feel
Like there’s no end in sight
Just remember that truth
Will always win out

Be careful and safe
While you travel the path
Your beauty will draw men
Like moths to a flame

But they’ll never see you
For the girl that you are
Until you can see you
And know who you are

So welcome home friend
It’s good to know you
To help you to flower
And grow into you
