Stronger Than I Have Ever Been Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Not one moment of heartache,
To put broken pieces back together...
Inflicted with intention done bu others,
Did I come to enjoy.
Nor the seconds of bitterness,
I learned to forget and forgive...
Can I say were the highlights in my life.
But the healing from them,
As I grew wiser from the process...
To make me stronger than I have ever been,
Is an achievement,
I have witnessed to regard as miraculous.
And to begin to explain how I remained sane,
With a peace of mind kept to keep protected...
Only blessed can I say I am to confess it.
Only blessed can I say I am to leave addressed.

'How did you manage to remove the stench of demons? '

Only blessed can I say I am to confess it.
Only blessed can I say I am,
To leave the facts of doing that left unexpressed.
With a not looking back to say,
I am stronger in ways that I have never been.
Kept faith to have provoked is no joke!
