Who Am I In This Skin
Who am I in this skin
as I sit and ponder
with my hand in my chin.
How did I get this way
I am lot different from my pass
well I sure do like it
I hope it just last.
When did I change
from a young scared girl
who was in insecure
now my life pass all seems a blur
Who am I
as look in the mirror
now I tell people what I think?
I have learn to say no
if people don't under stand me
I am thinking so!
Look at me
the difference you must see
I a stronger women
now that I am 60 years old
I am healthy and still make a man eyes turn
I am told. lol
Who am I in this skin
I am still surprised as I
wipe a tear from my eye,
I am now a widower now and it scary
I can not lie.
For me, I feel my life in God hands
God knew once I was alone
my skin would change and
I would become tuff and strong
and I would gain self confidence
while trying not to do any wrong.
Who am I in this skin
my life only just to begin
if this is true for you too
life can be grand
no matter what we have
been through.
