I see this hair I’m shedding
My youth is meeting my future
I love the woman I am becoming
The quiet season of days just past
Were longing for new stirrings
An ending is just a remarkable new beginning
In the seasons of our lives
May you live it all
The shedding, the rebirth, the growth, and the bloom
All have meaning, all are needed
You get to choose who you are everyday
This is what life gifts
The chance to be yourself in a world where people are afraid of the very same
In the war between mind and heart
Heart is always victor
I’m grateful for the shedding
Because I am closer to my true
A rebirth to grow into my bloom
Cheers to you, 2023
