A Journey of Self-Reflection and Growth

A Poem

In the garden of my soul, a seed was sown,
A tiny spark of light, a journey to be known,
Through the labyrinth of self, I began to roam,
In search of truths that had yet to be shown.

Each corner was explored, shadows I did face,
A symphony of whispers, filling sacred space,
Unveiling layers hidden, emotions interlaced,
A metamorphosis unfolding, at a gentle pace.

Fears once fierce, now stood meek and small,
Courage whispered, “Embrace and stand tall,”
In the mirror of self, I saw my all,
A kaleidoscope of scars, yet I stood enthralled.

Lessons etched like constellations in the night,
Guiding my passage, steering toward the light,
As I shed old skin, breaking from the tight,
I embraced my imperfections, a beautiful sight.

Forgiveness danced with grace in my open heart,
A tapestry of compassion, a brand-new start,
Acceptance bloomed, tearing shadows apart,
And love, pure love, became my work of art.
