Diamond In The Rough


Where is the exact point when you find happiness?

When you finally know your self-worth?

When you love yourself?

The tears, the hardships, the harsh comments

or having confidence to move on.

People’s opinions do not define who you ARE!

Be someone who does not care about negativity.

Baby girl, you got what it takes to make it to the top.

Probably the next CEO or the next Angelina Jolie.

No, no better than that.

Seeing my names in bright lights.

It is time for this diamond to shine,

you have been in hiding too long.

You are ready for take off!
