Just go for it


I don't care when they tell me to stop 

They are not in control of this life

I make my own decisions 

And tell myself when to stop

Just because they think they are better

Doesn't mean they own this life 

I am in control of my successes 

Not you, or her, or him

I love to see myself set goals and boundaries

Not having others do them for me

I am worth more than you'll ever know

I don't care if they watch me fail

Even if they laugh

I will get back up and go again

So just know,

If you want it,

Just go for it.
