Women of Windemere: Kellia Poetry

Posted on August 27, 2013 by Charles Yallowitz

I Am Kellia

I am strength
Show no weakness
Shed no tears
I must be the pillar
That others need

I will never play the fool
Or call such one a friend
My allies shall be true
Serious and strong
To suit my rules

I let no one in
My truth is mine
To keep within my breast
Though I feel a thawing
From one so noble

                                                                                                                                                                                                

Forced to Grow

A harsh birth
Met with mother’s death
Raised by a fearful father
Protected
Shielded from the world
By walls of every kind

She found ways
To slip outside and play
A greater strength
Than her father knew
Allowing her freedom
Behind his fretful back

Still she grew
More among adults
Than those she could call friend
She matured
At a rapid pace
Leaving childishness behind

    I love “I must be the pillar / That others need.” She’s powerful, but I can’t help feeling sad for her too.
