Finally sunshine!
I step out into the cold and see

Knew only its thorns
Would it still be sweet?

Sadly to then miss the rose
Nestled in their midst

I Surrender
May 2, 2015My efforts felt huge
yet my ability
like my strength
is so weak.
Imagine my surprise
when you chose me anyway!
Despite my flaws
through you
beautiful things grow!
