Strength is found in the most bizarre ways.

Like when you can't cry any longer,
or when there's more pain in your veins than blood.
You know those times when you break
& all your emotions collide
in a hail storm of feelings & sunshine?

Maybe it's just me,
when I'm shattered to a billion pieces
is when the brightest little lights of strength
find me,
these lights like to test me,
they like to see how far I'll go before I give in.
& Right before I lose hope, I find them.
