My

Moment is now and I know it’s not wanted you expected.

Or accepted but it’s what makes me who I am today.

It’s not what I’m thought would be the endgame for me.

But the joy it brings lights me up like a Christmas tree.

And the light in me doesn’t go away even as the seasons and holiday changes.

It grows and builds up until the walls

around me are harder to break down and the words you try to use against me don’t hold any leverage.

And there are no cracks in my wall for them to sneak into.

They are just being shouted outside and for that I can be in some peace and quite.
