You Always Had the Power

The chains are heavy
Your hands bound tight
Even your heart feels like a cast iron ball boring into your soul
Your back aches
Your mind screams in pain
Rage gurgles in your throat

For years, maybe your whole life, 
You've been shackled with self doubt, fear and shame
You've been told, or at least, heard, 
You are not enough 

You have allowed the actions and words of others to seep into your being
You've drug these chains, locked tight to your body, 
Until you have embodied the hollowness
You barely see the light on your brightest days

But the light is there

Will you trudge forward
Breaking free of the binds, the heaviness
Can you find strength in your heart and mind
Knowing you are worthy

Look around you
Dig Deep 
For you have always had the key to free yourself
You just had to believe
