Strength

   I clawed my way out of the depths of hell....

I was shattered, bent, fractured, frayed & worn down

 I cried, I begged, I pleaded, I prayed

 no one reached down to lend me a hand, no one lifted me up, no one came to my rescue, no one answered my prayers, no one saved me 

There are no Knights in shining armor riding white horses, no caped super heroes to fly in to whisk you to safety.. 

Some times you have to stop and save yourself 

  I started at the bottom I  put my pieces back together & built myself  back up 

Now I stand on top of the mountain close enough to be kissed by the sun

                                                        And you have no power of me ....
