Rise Above

You may have scars that tell a tale Of trauma faced, of battles won and failed But it's not the pain that made you strong It's the fight within that kept you going all along Don't let the past define who you are You are more than just a survivor, you're a shining star Sometimes you don't get what you want But trust that life has something better to flaunt Take care of yourself, and your heart Sometimes it's best to not care, to play your part In healing, in loving, in finding your way Don't be afraid to take a break, to rest and to play Trauma didn't make you stronger, my dear You did, with your courage, your resilience, your cheer So hold your head up high, and let your light shine For you are a warrior, a champion, a soul divine
