I Am a Warrior

I AM A WARRIOR

I am a warrior, at least that’s what they say.
But what they don’t realize, are all of the hard times
That have ever come my way.
I find myself asking, why things happen like they do.
But then I hear a voice from within, saying “I believe in you.”
How can someone walk out on you,
Who was always your best friend?
Leaving you so hurt, and with a broken heart to mend.
Life doesn’t give us answers, right when we need them;
But I’ve learned to keep my Faith strong,
And continue to trust in Him.
We learn to just get up, and move past the struggles before;
Because there is so much happiness and life,
On the other side of the door.
A warrior never stops, he always faces the fight;
Because he knows what he has been through,
And will one day see the light.
We must never give up, no matter how hard it gets,
Because we are strong, and warriors never quit.
