I wonder...
Why do tears form behind her eyes?
Why does she always smile,
but supress what's beneath?
Why does she always feel odd,
in the company of others?
Why does she lie awake some nights,
with tears slipping down her face?
Why does she cry out to God so desperately?
What is she thinking?
What haunts her so?
Why doesn't she feel like herself lately?
Why can't she express this feeling?
When will she be herself again?
When will she talk to the World,
reveal all of her?
When will she accept the baton?
When will she start to run?
When will she stop looking back,
stop turning around?
When will she run confidently?
When will she love herself?
When will she forget...
her pain, her past, her fears?
When will she stand up straight,
and conquer all?
...AGAIN...

I know...
Tears formed because she was sad,
She smiles because she wanted to hide,
to pretend some things didn't exist.
She felt odd in the company of others,
because she wasn't being herself.
She lay awake so many nights, in tears,
because she was upset at the hand life dealt.
She cries to God because she knows He's there.
Her thoughts are refreshed.
Nothing plauges her heart.
She didn't feel herself, because she wasn't.
This expression she expressed,
and now she is herself again, forever.
She has talked to greater than this World,
and revealed all of herself to her God.
She has accepted her baton,
she has started to run and run and run,
There is no looking back,
No more does she turn around.
Confidence is in her every stride.
She knows how to love herself,
She has learnt to forgive and forget...
her pain, her past, her fears.
She stands up straight and tall,
and is ready to conquer all.

Applause for the vessel He used to convey it.
