Life Will Break You If You Let It

Life will

Break you

If you let

It

She said,

Eyes locking

Me

But you

Have a choice

Determination

And grit

Are gifts given

When you

Feel like

You’ll break

But how

You use

Them

Now that

Can be

Your gift.

I looked at

Her

You’ve been

Dealt an

Unfair hand

How can

You be

As strong

As you are.

I remind

Myself everyday

Every hour

If I need to

None of us
