REBUILDING

When I look around, I realize how much there is to be rebuilt. Our cities, homes and lives needs rebuilding.

 

So many times, I have swallowed my voice when needed to speak out

Always loud in places I should be quiet

There are times that needed my voice to solve a situation, but I remained silent.

I lost my voice to fear.

Fear of being misunderstood.

This path has done more harm than good to my soul.

I need  rebuilding.

So many times I have hidden my smile even when it was needed to calm a situation

Even when it's needed to heal someone,I chose to hide it

Even when its needed to give someone hope I brushed it

I lost my smile to pride

I need rebuilding

So many times I needed to share my dream and inspire someone

I kept quiet

Many have lost their paths because I did not share mine

And the thought of this kills me everyday

I need rebuilding

So many times I have lost my way

When I needed  to gather courage and fight

I chose to close my eyes and let things be

Where is my confidence? 

I need rebuilding

As the colors slowly fade

in the world filled with changes

Let the rebuilding begin

Forgive yourself

Love yourself

Lay a brick of kindness

Trace your way back to your life again

Learn to laugh away the mourning

Find the missing pieces to complete the puzzle

Build strong walls of confidence to protect 

your voice,your smile,your dreams, your paths,your zeal,your courage

Stand up when you need to 

Talk when you have to 

Smile whenever you can

Share your dreams and inspire 

Make this world a better place to live in

Once lives have been rebuilt, homes, and cities too will be.
