Life without Limits

A new dawn is breaking  The promise of another day My aching heart resists, It wants to hide in the shadows Lurking in the dark  It shields itself against the brightening day But giving up? Is it an option? My head hurts with thoughts My heart in turmoil Confusing me further But I need to be brave  I must don my armour,  Ready to face the world To calm my inner demons Life is tough, it is difficult to get through the day But I will persevere I will face the world Without losing my softness And the tenderness within I have been hurt, the scars are raw But I will continue to trust I will love with my heart's humble thrust  For love and friendship to get in Once again, I will open the windows to my soul Life has been a series of let downs  And disappointments galore But I will open up my heart again To let in love and friendship No matter how life has treated me I will believe again I will emerge stronger and calmer It may not be to my liking It may not be wha...

It is morning once more. And you lay in bed, wondering How you will get through another day A day filled with confusion and pain If only you could hide under the covers And pretend that today never happened. You feel hurt and sad And you want to just disappear But it doesn't work that way That would be just too easy For a fighter like you. You are brave, you are resilient And you will bounce back. All you need is a mirror To show you how strong you are Stronger than your fears Braver than you would ever imagine. So pull yourself up, girl The world awaits you Show them your smile And the strength behind that smile  Move forward and forge your path. You are a woman who is worth  A lot more than you would ever imagine.  A woman who lives life by her rules alone.
