strength

Strength is recognizing that you need help

And asking for it

Strength is when no matter how hopeless the battle looks

You will never forfeit

Strength is letting down your guard

And taking a chance

Strength is asking the one person you secretly admire

To just one dance

Strength is going on

Even when you don't have the will

Strength is going to the extreme

Not just for the thrill

Strength is doing what's right

No matter what it will cost

Strength is asking for help

When you are completely and utterly lost

Strength is letting people get close

And giving them the ability to hurt you

Strength is not just saying what people want to hear

But saying what is true

Strength is never giving up

No matter how hopeless things seem

Strength is making reality out of

Your every hope and dream

Strength is being able to let go

And finally say goodbye

Strength is recognizing

That it's always okay to cry

Strength is being able to laugh

In the face of fear

Strength is going down the path you're on

No matter how drear

Strength is recognizing

When you need to let the one you love go

Strength is letting

Your true feelings show

Strength is being able to move on

And learn from your mistakes

Strength is being true to yourself

Even when everyone else are fakes

Strength is finally letting

The one that you love know

Strength is recognizing your mistakes

And using them to grow

Strength is scaling every mountain

No matter how high

Strength is freeing your soul

And letting your spirit fly

Strength is the ability to forgive

No matter what the crime

Strength is forgiving and forgetting

All of the time

Strength is in not following the crowd

But embarking on your own

Strength is knowing that you're never perfect

But merely partly grown

Strength is never giving up

Even when all odds are against you

Strength is always finding the time

To do what you've got to do

Strength is sticking up for

The person everyone picks on

Strength is always looking at the pro

And never at the con

Strength is knowing who you are

And who you want to beS

trength is found in everyone

In you . . . in her . . . in me.
