Strength

Strength is a word often misunderstood Not the outer kind but the inner good The kind that comes after emotional beatings When you pick yourself up and say no retreating As you look at your problems you say give me your worst Calm and cool on the outside but really you're ready to burst Forcing a smile to hide your pain Hoping a valuable lesson is what you may gain We all have moments where we feel vulnerable It's what you do in these moments that make life incredible
