What lies beneath my smile, with a brave face?
Who am I really, I have arrived at a very new place.
If you really looked, you'd definitely see
What lies beneath is the real me..
Beneath me is longing for a life I once had,
I was active and working and happy and glad.
Self-sufficient, I wore my personality on my sleeve,
I can't help but miss her, and what she believed.
She believed she could do anything and conquer this life
She believed that everything could be accomplished if you really tried.
She had hope for the future, nothing negative in her way
She woke up happy welcoming each new day.
What lies beneath me now, am I growing into someone new?
Life hit me with a curve ball and I am not sure from who.
Sometimes I blame myself for the medical issues
I cry and wonder what did I do?
New opportunities are now coming as I continue on my path,
In order to be happy I know I must let go of the past.
Yes its true, there is a new normal for me.
So I can't even answer, what lies beneath.

thank you for reading, Lee. I am so sorry. I posted daily wisdom words in the wrong part of the section so I had to re write part of it and accidentally wiped out your comment along with my post. Thanks so much for trying to post one. Samantha
