Write a poem about your goals for 2025 6 months ago
Rise and Shine
In the quiet of my heart, a promise takes its place,
To live in peace, our family in pieces, I’ll find my space.
With eyes set on tomorrow, I’ll rise above the pain,
Transforming scars to strength, like sunshine after rain.Though shadows whisper doubts, and the past tries to bind,
I’ll embrace my true potential, leave the hurt behind.
A mother, a student, a writer with a voice,
I’ll show the world my power, I’ll take back my choice.To those who said I couldn’t, I’ll prove them all wrong,
With every step I take, I’ll grow steadfast and strong.
Though tremors once held me, I’ll stand with grace anew,
Facing the abuser, I’m ready to break through.No fear will hold me captive, no chains will keep me down,
With faith as my armor, I’ll wear my courage crown.
For no matter their intentions, in darkness they may spin,
I’ll rise and shine forever, for I will never let them win.Voting is closed

Wow, Ashley! This piece is incredible. I can feel your strength, and just reading your piece makes me feel stronger and more powerful. I love this part, “Though shadows whisper doubts, and the past tries to bind,
I’ll embrace my true potential, leave the hurt behind.”
I feel like your stepping into your greatness, and letting go of anything or anyone that might hold you back. I can’t wait to see where this year takes you. Thank you for sharing and thank you for being part of The Unsealed. <3 Lauren
