You are stronger

You are stonger,

Save your energy my love. 
You have always been the one begging for love at the feet of dust.

Save your mind my darling,
Your eyes have seen so many beautiful things, far more than the bad.

Save your heart my friend,
Your skin is not taint from the toxic fingers that have bleached it.

Save your breath child,Your mother willfully made the air in your lungs, which will put out thousands of angry hands ;by voice
Save your strength honey
You are stronger than the flame they tried to light apon your wooden skin. 

you are stronger,
you always have been.
