The Empowered Woman,
she
moves through the world with a sense of confidence
and grace.
Her once reckless spirit
now tempered by wisdom.
Quietly, yet firmly, she
speaks her truth without doubt or hesitation
and the life she leads is
of her own creation.
She now understands what it
means to live and let live.
How much to ask for herself
and how much to give.
She has a strong, yet
generous heart
and the inner beauty she
emanates truly sets her apart.
Like the mythical Phoenix,
she has risen from the
ashes and soared to a new plane of existence,
unfettered by the things
that once posed such resistance.
Her senses now heightened,
she sees everything so clearly.
She hears the wind rustling
through the trees;
beckoning her to live the
dreams she holds so dearly.
She feels the softness of
her hands
and muses at the strength
that they possess.
Her needs and desires she
has learned to express.
She has tasted the bitter
and savoured the sweet fruits of life,
overcome adversity and
pushed past heartache and strife.
And the one thing she never
understood,
she now knows to be true,
it all begins and ends with You.
