Heartbeat

This is how my heart sounded when it was afraid.

I was afraid of becoming myself.

I was afraid I couldn't nurture.

I was afraid my ambition would end.

This is how my heart sounded when I was broken.

When I was heartbroken, and I felt like I couldn't continue anymore, and I kept all the weight locked inside.

But this is how my heart sounds when I am focused.

It is beating fast because I refuse to quit

Because I am strong.

Because I am myself... and more.

This is the sound of my heart.

It is soft and hardly whispers.

When I listen, I am not afraid anymore.

When I listen, I know that I choose my own destiny.
