#WritcoPoemPrompt4
The story of life,
Is a work in progress,
Success or strife,
You're allowed to digress.

A little gentleness goes a long way.
As each day passes, the darkness will slowly begin to fade.

There will be moments where you feel all alone.
That's why it is important to cultivate self-love within your heart and your home.

Find yourself lost in prayer.
Show yourself kindness, and compassion, and make friends with despair.

These challenging moments won't last forever.
Your capability to show up regardless of the weather.

Shall give you enough strength and character to carry on.
I promise you better days, so for now let's move along.
