My future
Everywhere I go,
people are telling me no.
Everywhere I look,
people are telling me that I won't make it.
I start to believe that they are right
until I realize that they don't know me.
They do not know what my dreams are.
How hard I will work to make those dreams come alive,
to make those dreams happen.
They don't know what lengths I am willing to go.
What strengths I have in me that are willing to go the distance.
If, and the key word is if, I fall, I know that I will jump back up and try again
until I am where I want to be.
These dreams of mine are going to come true
and I will gladly be there when it happens to tell you that.
I am a strong woman who knows what she wants
and is not afraid to go after it with all she has.
I am an independent, strong woman who is not going to take no for an answer.
This is me and these are my not my dreams.
This is my future.
