Hold On
I have worked hard to get here,
to a place where i can be valuable,
to have an experience that puts every piece of me together,
to make myself beautiful on the outside as I am on the inside;
To come so far I started with nothing,
no self-esteem, no hope , no strength, no breath, no faith or light to spare....
and here I am today,
reeling from a battle that cracked, broke and killed parts of me...
and yet today,
I still can't hold on to a dream.
