What Lies inside
What I Am inside Me got us thru year '20, houseless & sent to street Life. No matter the darkness We ran from. We let the past go, to know We made it. Free to Live in Lightness. Thoughts of what's to come overwhelmed, We didn't know where We should go. There was much to endure on a day to day basis. So I stayed present in the tuffest times, shift'n from surviving to thriving.
