We are all fighters
Of our own destiny
All soldiers
Lost in the war that was weaved for us from the thread of our own beginnings.
We pull the thread waiting for change
Only to unravel the tapestry
and reveal new colors
Like an accidental kaleidoscope
crashing in and winning the battle
of our self doubts.
