Worth the Fight

Grow flowers from all your rain.
you have helped me grow mine.
Keep fighting through your pain,
remember it's alright not to be fine.

As much as we are the same 
We are different too 
Our beauty lies within 
What an astonishing view.

Sometimes it is in a dark place 
Sometimes it hides,
Many days we want to cover our face,
As we get swept beneath our tides.

This beauty of yours, It is not just your reflection, 
This beauty is in your mind and heart 
And cannot be defined by your loss or rejection.

Please see the signs 
Please find the clues 
The true beauty of today 
The true beauty of you 
Is who you are deep down 
And all that you have been through.

Your life is worth much more than those drugs or a drink,
I know it is your escape when you feel alone at night
And all you can do is overthink.

Yes it gets hard,
And yes giving up seems right,
But believe me Kira, 
You are worth the fight.
