It may be true that I am broken.
I have taken a mighty blow that is true.
Life has beaten me to where I am, and that is what life does.
But I will keep moving forward.
The Pain and sorrow will subside but will remain if I stay down.
I do have a dream a goal that above all else I WILL achieve.
I have long thought the goal was one thing.
But this blow has revealed its true nature
I have feared not the darkness but the light.
Would I be the same?
Would I be welcome in the light?
Whether I say I can or can’t I am right.
If I can’t I stay in the pain
If I can I will see my goal.
So I will fight my way out of the darkness and into the light.
I will sacrifice who I am, to be who I want to be.
I will work one inch at a time, one step at a time.
I shed my tears as a sign of my pain and I will use that to push me forward.
I will show not the world not anyone but myself how Great I Am.
I will rise above with scars.
I am holding on by a hair and right now I make a choice.
I will not make any prayer for help.
I will acknowledge the pain and pull myself up.
I forgot the fire the drive to better myself.
I am not a coward I will not give up,
I claim my heritage as a child of light.
I have had enough of sitting in the darkness looking at the light and dreaming.
I have never been a hard hitter.
But I am strong.
But I have taken many hits, and I will take many more.
I believe in myself only.
I believe that I am strong.
