This Is Me
I fell,
I wouldnt tell.
Clouded by old fear,
No words of comfort I could hear.
Karma returned,
then the tables were turned.
I felt what they did,
and I see how far I've slid.
Remembering my strength,
I was willing to go the length.
Feet used to dance in the dew,
So why cant I make this new?
Standing up in my place
Words of the music begin to trace,
I fade out the world,
and my wings unfurled.
Letting go,
letting be
letting free
Letting me.
Memories of a dark room,
Two spotlights watched me bloom.
The words imprinting on my soul.
Making me feel whole.
The music caressed my skin,
Feeling the scars of where I have been.
And loving them
Letting the music thrum
For the first time,
I lay hands on my self with care
with no thought to hurt or tear
I loved what I found
not caring about the pound
I loved my self:
Hands above my head
all doubt has fled.
traveling to the back of my neck
thinking of my past's wreck.
They went down my side,
I dont want to hide.
Hands find my waist,
suprised with what I faced.
I had curves,
electricity ran through my nerves.
I felt beautiful.
no matter my past strife,
for the first time in my life
I felt beautiful.
I felt Beautiful.
The song come to an end,
I let the holes in my heart mend
A room full of girls,
their souls shining like pearls
Tears form on my eyes,
I feel my power arise.
Strength beond compare
Go ahead and stare.
Because Im not afraid of what you'll find
How long have I been blind?
Still in the brink of my youth
Hiding my self from the truth.
I stand tall infront of the stars,
my past riddled with scars,
Life pulsing in my chest
Knowing I am blessed.
Saying my contract,
I have no fear of eye contact.
This is who I am
and if you don't like it, I dont give a damn.
I raise my head,
Ready to change the unsaid.
bliss flowing in my fingertips,
I open my lips.
"I am a beautiful, free, and mature young woman, who loves and trusts herself "
This is me,
As strong as can be,
This is me,
Now I am free.
This is me
No matter what you see
and this time
I found my power on my own strength.
~This is me; a beautiful, free, and mature young woman who loves and trust herself.~ And nothing can change that.
