One day when you wake up,
you will find that you have become a forest.
You have grown roots
and found strength in them
that no one thought you had.
You have become stronger and more beautiful,
full of life-giving qualities.
You have learned to take all the negativity around you
and turn it into oxygen for easy breathing.
A host of wild creatures live inside you
and you call them stories.
A variety of beautiful birds rest inside your mind
and you call them memories.
You have become an incredible self-sustaining thing of epic proportions.
And you should be so proud of yourself,
of how far you have come
from the seeds of who you used to be.
