I Am Strong

Here I am Just as myself Never stepping down Always in leadership And I refuse to wear a frown I’ve fluttered up from the bottom Released my pessimistic views Like a dove with broken wings They have healed, And away I flew I can’t be broken down You will see me as a whole The pieces held together By my family pure as gold I work to make my living Sometimes it is so tough But I wouldn’t change a second What is life without love? In the place that I live Not the nicest Far from best But we are working our way up My family’s stronger than the rest Don’t take me as a bragger But my confidence is firm If I can make it through a tragedy Then surely, I can make it through a storm -Miranda Lambert- *free verse
