I am not fragile.
I've spent a lifetime feeling
As breakable as a light bulb
With no insides
As if it were the essence
Of femininity. For me.
But I look now
And see more than fragility
A heart that is broken
And still open
A spirit indomitable
A ferocious will
Able to find hope amid hopelessness
And meaning in absurdity
Produce beauty from tragedy
And light from darkness.
