If They Never Told You Poem by Mwenyeji Spikes

Just because things could have been different,
It doesn't mean they'd be better in any way
Holding onto anger is like drinking poison,
And expecting the other person to die from it

Love is the most powerful energy there is
You have to outgrow some version of your old self to bloom again
The past is heavy so just put it down and dwell in the moment and what is yet to come
If they never told you, the power is deep within your heart and rests solely on you

I you ever met yourself at your very best
Then your life would change in infinite ways
No one can make you inferior without your consent
Just because they never approved you and your worth
Still your value is infinite and your worth invaluable

Rise now and stride forth to your very best days
You was equipped to achieve the best for greatness is within
Venture into the deep and let your spirit soak in greatness
If they never told you, the world is yours for the taking.
