Self Preservation

Self preservation I'll go on with my life What you took from me Just gave me insight. I am stronger,smarter more confident too What you took from me Has made me brand new. My eyes are open My heart is safe I am now in a whole new phase. I choose to be happy More cautious,it seems I won't change me, to play anyones schemes. I'll smile,live and love No one will take that away I'm the best of me and I'll stay that way. Self preservation, isn't easy Thats true... But in life,it's needed What more can we do. A lesson learned ,never to late in life Live,love and be happy It's a beautiful life. The sun,the moon, the water that flows The green grass and flowers,just watching them grow. The snow in winter,cold air we breathe Self preservation,is a beautiful thing. What you took from me was more than a dream It happpened in life But was a goodthing. I'm a survivor, you're in the past Self preservation, has gotten me through... So all I can say is "I Thank You".....
