As I wipe away my silent tears today, I realize -

I have been defeated but not anymore...
I feel subdued but need to emerge more powerful inside...
I feel nothing and yet everything at once...
I have been strong enough to endure the pain...
I have softened the long path ahead...
I have removed sorrow from within...
I recognize the good from the bad...
I am wary of my surroundings...
I am my own anchor...
I feel broken now but never again...
I have gained the knowledge I didn’t earlier...
I am at peace with myself...
I was, am and shall always be my own voice...
