Only What You Know – a poem

By Sarah Scerbak

 

You wouldn’t be a star
if you had no darkness;
what do you think
makes you shine?

You wouldn’t be a warrior
if you had no battles;
what do you think
makes you strong?

You wouldn’t be a flower
if you had no rain;
what do you think
makes you bloom?

You wouldn’t be an angel
if you haven’t faced the devil;
what do you think
makes you good?

 

You

Can handle

Anything.
