I saw I learnt

You fell I saw
I saw and learnt falling is okay if you know how to get up

You cried I saw
I saw and learnt crying is okay if you are hurt

You slipped I saw
I saw and learnt I can slip, slide and swing if I know my own grounds

You broke down I saw
I saw and learnt breaking down is okay if you know how to pick up the pieces

You feared I saw
I saw and learnt its okay to fear the unknown

You walked I saw
I saw and learnt to walk off things I am not sure of

You laughed I saw
I saw and learnt to laugh at my own mistakes

You loved I saw
I saw and learnt to love myself

You hated I saw
I saw and learnt it is okay to hate few things in life

You spoke I saw
I saw and learnt that it is okay to speak up for things I believed in

You heard I saw
I saw and learnt to have a patient ear

You fell again I saw
I saw you falling down again and again
But I have learned enough to give you my hands, hold you tight and tell you its okay to fall every time



Dedicated to my mother for being who she is. For leading with a courageous example. A lead difficult to follow. I hope I am able to be a fraction of a woman she was and she is.
