Bitter to Brave

Broken and bitter is where many will be.

Wrapped in their chains, begging to be free.

Our hearts are crushed, hardening our heart.

Pain and anger taking over right from the start.

Hope gone and our glass always being half empty.

Perspectives altered and stuck in our own captivity.

Broken and bitter…..it’s actually harder than you think.

I refuse to believe that it is our natural instinct.

Nobody desires a life of pain or dark clouds above their head.

Nobody wants the heaviness of bitter, your blood feeling like lead.

So fight the bitter and come of the cave!

Let’s work together to become broken and BRAVE!

Your chains have been unlocked since day one don’t you see?!

You are the master of your freedom…you hold the key!

You can do this….bravery is within us all.

Keep digging deep even when you start to fall.

For when you keep getting up, that is when your bravery grows.

That is when you begin to feel the strength and you truly know…..

You know who you are no matter where you have been.

You know that defeat is just part of the ultimate win.

You understand and know that you can make your glass half full.

You know that bitterness is a wolf hidden in sheep’s wool.

So let’s do this….pick up that key and remove those chains today!

Take that first step of living a life of broken and BRAVE!
