I put my war paint on everyday.

Not like the colors that Indians used to put on before a battle,

I try to prepare myself to face the challenges that life brings.

Because I know that life is challenging.

You see my life is is a hard one.

I have known grief and troubles.

People have left me,

When I needed them most.

The waves of life push me down.

So I get back up.

And I know I'll figure life out eventually.
