Story to Tell

Story to Tell.
Damian Semwayo

Once upon a time, I had a story to tell,
Of the challenges I faced, and the struggle of my life.
But fear and doubt had taken hold,
And my words stayed hidden, kept out of sight.

Then you came along, my dear friend,
With your big heart and love to lend.
I hesitated, for I was tough to save,
But your support never wavered, your kindness ever brave.

Still, I feared the judgment I’d receive,
And doubted if anyone would believe,
The ups and downs, the rags to riches tale,
Or would they see just rags, without a trail.

The toughest of times came in old age,
When my rage was hard to assuage.
My folks saw me as rebellious and rude,
But maybe their perception was all skewed.

So I went on a journey of self-discovery,
To find the truth within me and recover.
I laid bare my essence, my struggles and fears,
No longer afraid of judgment or tears.

My story, at last, can be told,
With your love, dear friend, I broke the mold.
From fear and doubt, I finally broke free,
And embraced myself, flaws and all, finally me.
