Enough

I've been to dark places
I've lost myself and all the basics
I've crawled on my hands and knees
Fighting to stand up again 

Gritting my teeth
Tears down my face
I will never be the same
No one will be in my way

I've backed down from battle
I've fought for love and lost it all
I've hiked the muddiest mountains
Proving the strength my body has

Restless heart rate
Mind set strong
I will never be the same
No one will be in my way

I've had my heart torn out and given away
I've hurt myself thinking No one would care
I've reserved my head, heart, and body
Believing other the only way to heal

Silent noise in my head
Cardiac thunder through my chest
I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME
AND NO ONE WILL STAND IN MY WAY

I am enough!
