Dear Solange, your heart is brave. It touched mine and I'm sure it will touch many more.
A SONG WITH NO TITLE :::
In a quiet town where shadows roam,
Lived a girl who felt so far from home.
She hid her face, her dreams, her fears,
Behind a mask of others’ cheers.
She longed to fit, to blend, to Mold,
Into the shapes that others told.
But every night, when stars would rise,
She’d face herself with tearful eyes.
One day she wandered by a stream,
And there she met a gentle gleam.
A wise old woman, silver-haired,
Sat by the water, deeply aware.
“Why do you cry?” the woman asked,
As the girl removed her well-worn mask....
