Poetry Tuesday: Breathe

I take a breath


I take another breath

I need to be strong

I need to be brave


One step forward

another step after that

taking a breath

holding it in


I cannot cry

my tears cannot be wet

If i cry

i may never stop


taking a breath

looking in the mirror

facades glistening in my eye

facades in my smile


grabbing the strength from within

holding on to it tightly

holding my heart

close inside


taking a breath

taking another breath

strength

bravery
