Been dealing with a lot at an early age.
People get amused when they hear my tales.
Some say "how you do it" some say "have courage",
Don't know how to act now, because have been hearing those since always.
Know I'm strong enough to handle them all;
Should not wonder why god has chosen me.
"Why only myself, but not you?" I recall,
But hearts say, after this will come glee.
"Why do you always weep?"
Oh darling, crying doesn't portray you're weak.
My mind is not like yours, it keeps falling in steep
But tries really hard to reach its peak.
No baby, you can do this all; i insist
To stumble and rise has only been the way.
You don't know i too can turn pessimist,
Whenever things fall away.
'I am a warrior' is the reward i owe to give myself.
Should not anybody dare to call me fragile.
If you believe and have faith in yourself,
My dear, everything will be facile.
