Skin as soft as rosebuds, eyes voluminous and veiled. Hair, a cascade of pure velvet, yet her eyes still tell the tale. On the surface, there’s perfection, for no one can see the pain. So, she searches for protection. For, the thorns of life remain. As graceful as the queen she is, she often walks alone. Yet, she will not shed a single tear. She won’t give up her throne.

Skin as soft as rosebuds, eyes voluminous and veiled. Hair, a cascade of pure velvet, yet her eyes still tell the tale. Whenever she grows weary, she finds strength to walk by faith. For, the tug-of-war within her guides the choices that she makes. As faithful as the morning dew, she waits with bated breath. She won’t budge from perch of truth. No, she’ll not take a step.

Skin as soft as rosebuds, eyes voluminous and veiled. Hair, a cascade of pure velvet, yet her eyes still tell the tale. Behind the veil of beauty, shades of truth are often torn. But, she gives without abandon and hides from what she mourns. As she lifts her head with purpose, she prepares to win this fight. She’ll walk with grace and favor and her faith will shape her life.
