I say, I am, I will


I say “I don’t care… I just don’t care”

I say I am a strong person but I don’t feel like one

I say I can make it through but I don’t think I can

I say that I will change the lives of young children that are suffering for love and care and respect

 

I have a strong and positive heart that I should not forget

I have witnessed fighting, hitting, yelling, screaming

But I didn’t do anything about it

I have became a person that my mother says I am

I have not became a person that I nor God says I am

I had a chance long ago to make my life new but I let it pass me by

I had a purpose

 

I need to stretch out and take a chance

I need to be boosted up and I need to smile at the world that I can change

I need to be confident

I need to change who I have become

I need to search for myself and find it soon

I need love, care, and respect from others to help me get through my days

 

I want to be strong and confident in myself

I want to be who God says I am

I want to speak with confidence and stay strong

 

I love my life. I might not love

what is happening in it or even the people

But, I love living

I love myself no matter what’s going on

I love and will respect myself

 

I am strong

 I am not a person who stands for name calling and selfishness

I am me and I will STAND UP WITH PRIDE from now on, until I die.

 

I will stand strong for the children

I will stand strong for the children who go through the same things I do or worse

I will create a strong mind for myself and I need to keep that in my heart

I will do EXACTLY what my doctor says

I WILL LET MY VOICE FILL THE ROOM.

IT WILL fill the room with CONFIDENCE and ENCOURAGEMENT.

I WILL SAY IT WITH STRONG POWER!!!
