she wears her heart on her sleeve


she wears her heart on her sleeve                                                           

she wears her heart on her sleeve
like a note from her mom
safety pinned to her warm, fuzzy sweater 
on the first day of school
apprehensive and shy 
she saunters through early days
with a small child’s voice

she wears her heart on her sleeve
like book full of enchanted stories
sitting on a shelf waiting to be desired
exuberant and hopeful
she dances through the early-days
a young woman’s voice

she wears her heart on her sleeve
like a badge of honor
earned during the turbulent times
rising above, with confidence and strength
moving through the pain 
to embrace inner peace
she rejoices in today
her true voice and heart joined as one
