Delivered
To see the world through her eyes;
The blessing of a new sun each day, and the rising of the moon
The experience that comes with making mistakes again and again
The feeling that comes with success after constant failure
The little piece she has taken from each of her friends
Everyone has beauty, deep down, buried under a mask
Everyone has a story that may prevent him or her from being themselves
Forgiveness is as never ending as the sea kissing the shoreline
An open mind helps her to heal other hearts
That may not be as pure as hers
She longs to heal those who are wounded
Reaching out unconditionally with her soul
But over time it starts to tear
Dullness comes over her once shining eyes
Her purity has been used up, and not given back to
She does not know how to deny those who are not worthy
Of her unconditional forgiveness, or those hurt beyond her repair
She is being chipped away by the careless use of others
She blames herself, for she must have gone somewhere
But she is not beyond repair, unlike these souls who took her light away
She listens to the songs of her muses
The laughter of her brothers and sisters
The shine of the moon in the night
The hope of the days to come
The glowing eyes of those she loves
She remembers her light
And she is restored
