I Am Still a Strong Woman

I Am Still a Strong Woman I am a capable woman I fear what life will bring for me I hear people trying to make me deteriorate I see pain and turmoil I am emotionally distraught I pretend that everything is fine I feel pain and grief I touch my scars everyday I worry that I am not good enough I cry because I don’t want to be like my mom I dream that, someday, I will be content I try not to let people bring me down I hope that I can survive my past Yes, I am STILL a strong woman.
