Lost Now Strong


Sometimes I just look around, I see faces, bodies, people, I am one of them, But then why do I feeel so alone? I can look right in the eyes, The eyes of a desparate man, Calling for help and attention, And I can see me. By others I see what I shouldn't, I hear what I shouldn't, But then I do, I do what I was told I can't. I have beaten all odds, Pushed down only to only come up, Stronger, better, smarter, stronger, I rise up to be me. I was once lost, Scared and alone, Your not there to stop me anymore, And now I am strong.
