I once was a house of mirrors and mist,
Distorted by words that shouldn’t exist.
But the Architect came with a pen and a plan,
To build up the spirit where the silence began.
No longer a victim of the shadows I’ve known,
I am building a sanctuary, stone by stone.
With Grit in my hands and Grace in my heart,
I am the one choosing where my safety will start.
A word of Grit-n-Grace by Arlene Blakeney
