I am everything they said i could not be

The media told me i wasn't pretty enough

but as i stand in the mirror... I am

I am the silent breeze that flows through the trees

A force of nature moving in silence

I am a solider fighting in this war called life

Bravely i earn my strips

Strong , stronger , strongest

As i grow older 

Smarter and wiser 

As i head towards my future.
