An undervalued courage
It takes a daring woman to see the strength
of remaining soft in a hard world.
To love like you've never been hurt,
when your heart has been broken many times.
The greatest act of bravery is to recognize that

I do not wish to go through doors
when all I see is black.
The colors that I used to see
