Poem Text – “this heart won’t give up”
"this love story
has been a slow fall.
and these wings
have been a slow unfold.
and there has been a fight here
for my worth, and it sure has
been a hard-fought one,
and this road home has been a long one...
but there's a little bit of light here now.
and even though it's been a long
time coming... the light is coming.
and as uncertain as i am
of how much farther i have to go,
i know now that i've got it in me to keep going.
and until i feel free... i know now that
this heart won't give up."
