'life Didn'T Break Me
They said there will be days like this
Where my heart refuse to beat
Or my feet refuse to move
I came too far
To want to halt this journey now
My eyes can only see so far
But my faith keeps whispering
You still have a mile to go
I don’t want to quit halfway
And deal with all the questions
That might garner
I will rather take it slow today
Move at my heart's pace
But I refuse to turn around
I refuse to look back
Like someone who regrets
The choices they've made
I will rather deal with the challenges
That each day brings
Than refuse to try
That boils down to refusing to grow
Ultimately when I do look back
I want to see those tears and those broken moments
As elements, that made me; me
They didn’t break me
They fashioned me
