Dear Me Poem by Anashree Nash

Dear me

Life has been bitter sweet;
But you faced every challenge,
Deep in it's eyes
And you not only rose above them,
You conquered them!

Every moment, every person
And every circumstance
That came to break you,
You either used to build yourself
And you drew knowledge from that.

Those sleepless nights,
The silent crys,
The parts of your life
That the world does not see,
You stepped out of so gracefully.

Even when there were those
Who tried to taint your name
And your reputation,
Those people who took what is yours
And made you look like the villian...

Your hands still remained clean,
And your faith in God heightened!
What is yours will return to you,
Without doing all the things
They have been doing in secret!

To a heart that is always giving;
And seeing to the needs of others
Before your own,
With every intention being pure,
I commend you!

Your black or white persona
Makes you a little misunderstood,
But those who know you
Will know that you're a treasure chest
Full of treasure!

Mwah!
