A masterpiece in progress

Rise, dear one, and let the sun shine bright

For every ending marks a new beginning in sight

The storm may rage, but it will soon subside

And the calm that follows will be your heart’s guide

You’ve given your all, and loved with all your might

But sometimes love can be a bittersweet delight

It’s okay to hurt, it’s okay to cry

But don’t let grief define you, and make you ask why

You are stronger than the tears that fall

Than the pain that pierces, and the heart that’s small

You’ve survived the darkest nights, and the longest days

And you’ll rise again, like the morning’s rays

Don’t let the memories of what could’ve been

Haunt you like ghosts, and make you give in

For every memory holds a lesson true

And every scar tells a story of me and you

You are more than the love that went awry

More than the tears that fell, and the goodbye

You are a work of art, a masterpiece in progress

A masterpiece that’s still being written, with every success

So rise up, dear one, and let your heart be free

Let go of the pain, and let your spirit be

You are capable of love, and joy, and more

You are a phoenix rising, from the ashes of what’s been before

Remember who you are, and all that you’ve been through

And know that you are worthy, of love that’s true

You are enough, just as you are today

And you’ll find your way, to a brighter day.
