Rebekkah by Leonie Bryant - On Caravanserai

After taking a peep at Day 4 of the Advent calendar, and reflecting on letting one's emotions come out of their bottles, this story came to mind.

Rebekkah lived

with a fierce desire

to overcome those issues

that dulled her spirit.

-

She worked so hard,

she cared so much,

and yet, from time to time

those demons came.

They crippled her inside.

-

It was many years

before those demons

could be given a name.

'Twas Fear and Guilt.

-

Now when the demons come,

they can be named

and sent off on their way.

-

Rebekkah,

she has changed.

She still works hard

and cares so much,

and she is free,

free from the binds

of the damage done to her.

-

Her spirit is free,

she is dancing through her days,

no longer responsible

for other's ills.
