Who I am...

[emphasizethe2]

Who I am
Yesterday is gone
Tomorrow has not come
Today I am a changed woman

What has not killed me
Has made me stronger
Stronger and more beautiful than before

As the Phoenix
Rises from the ashes
I am born anew

No longer hurting
No longer hating
Hope has taken root

Giving me what I have yearned for
Forgiveness of myself
Forgiveness of others

Let tomorrow come
Let it try to knock me down
Nothing can hurt me now

The worst is past
I have overcome
I am Hope
