The Birth of Passion

A beautiful expression of a heartfelt writer Im sure many will relate to.

My passionate self
Lay hidden too long,
Whispering some times,
Yet afraid to live.

Born in fire and tears,
My sobs announced it,
Passion’s emergence
Into vibrant life.

I am passionate
And always have been,
But the smile I wore
Hid the truth from me.

Learning to listen
Not only to love,
I feel myself breath
And embrace the world.
