I believe in a queen, a goddess, a woman with independence and self love, 

I believe that stars need darkness to shine, 

I believe in the creativity and imagination of the mind,

I believe in the darkness in a room full of lights,  

and the wounds behind the blood, 

I believe that no one is perfect but is beautiful. 

I have been at the deepest darkest part of the ocean, 

and I’ve felt the last bit of strength in the body before drowning, 

I have been to the garden with flowers 

 and butterflies and the sunshining on your face, 

I have been through the fear of speaking to another,  

And the evil of wanting to end it all, 

I have been through the war and came out alive, 

I have been the one to see others true beauty when others don’t.

I have seen myself go from a leaf to a forest not a  

Flower or a stem or a tree, I grew into a forest. 

I have seen a group of beautiful souls come together,  

To help another find their beautiful soul, 

I have seen one cut the head off the flower and 

 blame the flower for being so pretty, 

I have seen your life flash before your eyes when you think it’s the end, 

I have seen your own blood betray you like if you were strangers.

I need motivation to wake up in the morning and get off my bed, 

I need respect from those whom I love, 

I need love… yeah love, it hurts like hell but I need it, 

I need to fulfill my self-worth if I want to be happy in life, 

I need to be the best of myself if I want to succeed,

I need to be proud of who I am as a person even if no one else does. 

I will become an artist,  

I will become a role model for those who need to learn about equality, 

I will become a listener for those who don’t have anyone, 

I will become some one who shows body positivity, 

I will become my own hero someday.
