The Power Within

 

I never knew how much power

I had within

Until the time came when

I had to leave my friends. 

They were partying with alcohol and drugs

but the power within told me I had to go.

 

The Power Within

I never knew how much power

I had within

Until the time came when

I had to leave the boyfriend. 

He was verbally and physically abusive

but the power within told me I had to go.

 

The Power Within

I never knew how much power

I had within.

 

 

 

I am precious, more precious than gold

I am a diamond in the rough

ready to be polished and shined

for the whole world to behold.

 

I have talents untold

I see know what I should have seen before.

Present myself with dignity, faith, and pride

at let my power within shine.
