gifts
everyone tells me that I’m a
strong woman
they marvel at my resiliency
they always say
“I don’t know how you do it.”
the truth is, I think some people are born with
tragedy
in their blood
everyone tells me life is a gift
but gifts are too easy
I think god wants some people to
fight for it

100%. Sometimes I say, “everything I have I’ve had to fight for”. Which is probably not completely accurate, but it does feel that way sometimes. But when you fight for something, it feels more important. Love this poem.
Thank you so much!!
