I never thought that it would end like this but it did

I never thought I would walk away but I did

I never thought that I would be so calm but I was

I never thought I had the strength

But, I found that I am stronger than I ever imagined.

When did this happen?

Only yesterday, I was paralyzed by fear

Wanting nothing more than to please

To pleased my husband because my heart belonged to him

Afraid of being alone, not belonging, wanting to be connected

Failing to see that I was already connected

What happened between yesterday and today?

Why was I so afraid?

What prompt me to wake up?

What made me push aside the fear?

What made me want to fly?

What made me open my eyes?

Was it that the illusion has fled away? or,

Was it waiting for me to realize?

That all along I had the power, to stay or go

Or, is it that I have found my voice?

A voice I chose to silence because of my own fears

I, too have a destiny

May not be lofty or adventurous; nevertheless, it is my destiny

To be the voice of those who cannot speak

I am the voice of the one who chooses not to speak

I am the voice of the one who speaks too softly to be heard

No, I am not only a voice

I am the hand who will help to lift you up

I am the woman who will walk beside you

I am the woman who will follow you into your destiny

I am the woman who will make you realize…

That all along you needed me to complete who you are

You tried to do it all yourself and failed

Because you never thought to bring me along

Even though you felt the connection and

Knew in your heart we were meant to be

After all Felix

I have always been the one for you….
