Fragility and strength poetry

Inner Strength

 

Finding inner strength, it really is not easy,

As life all round keeps working to defeat me.

Stresses of school and stresses of work,

Throughout our lives we can often be left hurt.

 

Being left hurt and being left here fragile,

Words can sometimes hit us, powerful like a missile.

A child at school, will grow, learning gaining knowledge,

Getting stronger daily and developing hope and courage.

Experiences

As we get older, our experiences shape and mould,

Some believe our futures are already foretold.

We need to keep on working, just keep pushing through,

We all must try and focus on what we need to do.

 

Looking around at the world around me,

The wildlife and the flowers, the joy to be free.

Needing to be strong, working to not be weak,

A day at a time and we will have the courage we seek.

 

Fragility

As the petals they fall from the rose,

The lover sees it and she knows.

Giving your love and giving your heart,

From the person with you, you can’t depart.

 

The thistles on the rose are always very sharp,

As pretty as it is, its stem it can really hurt,

The blood red flower is beauty, its love not meant to deceiving,

Though for some the rose can sometimes be misleading.

Our hearts

We leave our hearts open to those that we love,

Making us able to feel hurt and need hope from above.

To those that we need and those we care for,

As weakness turns to strength as our hearts we outpour.

 

We give our hearts to others, we trust them not to break it,

Too often we’re left crying as our love it doesn’t make it.

Our heart it can be shattered, like broken fractured glass,

But in time for all of us, the pain will ease or pass.
