Inner Strength
I shall succeed if only I try
A little harder each time
With patience, love, the occasional cry
My mother taught me well
This world is full of temptation
But I shall not succumb
By encouragement and careful beration
My father taught me well
And what is left I have taught myself
Though some times mistakes have been made
But each time remember, knowledge is wealth
I am stronger than I know
