raindrops fall rapidly from the sky
as they find their way through the crevices of my skin
I turn within and seek
on this day intended for me and my birth
exalting in my ascension from earth
from once I grew and now I stand
i’m grateful for the moments that have gotten me here
it’s my obligation to hold them near
and seek understanding in its life lesson
using knowledge as a weapon of protection
against self-doubt or neglection
I open
to the willingness of truth
planting the root of discovery and change
so beneficial to our interior design
walking with footsteps matched to the rhythm of my stride
collecting evidence of pride stretched deep and wide
from the depths of my soul
the chemical euphoric reaction is impactful
raindrops soak into me.
- the late bloomer
