Alone

I may not be pretty enough

To be a model in on a magazine.

I may not be smart enough

To get a bachelor's degree.

 

I may not be skinny enough

To be the apple of your eye.

I may not be sweet enough

For you to care to say goodbye.

 

However, I am strong enough

To tell you that I don't care.

However, I am strong enough

To show what my heart can bear.

 

However, I am strong enough

To prove to I'm not that weak.

However, I am strong enough

To stay up on my feet.

 

You may not think I'm ready

For all the world will give.

But I know I'm a fighter,

And that's enough to live.

 

So here's the point I'm trying to make,

I'll hit straight down to the bone:

One day I'll be good enough,

I'll no longer be alone.

That's beautiful. And sharp

That's beautiful. And sharp enough to cut someone down to size.

Awesome. Thanks so much for your input. That's exactly what I meant for it to be. :)
