What is behind those cautious eyes

A defeated soul who constantly tries

Resting under every guarded smile

A person who feels they might cave at any mile

Thrusting our minds into an ever tumbling  pit

Grasping onto our final wit

Trying is our only defense

With every judgment we feel more tense

Repeating our faults as a constant beat

Drowning in our self made defeat

This isn't the answer it never had to be

Unbury yourself and you will see

It is ourselves who choose how much we are worth

Not others who choose how much we deserve

In a place constantly tearing ourselves down

Remember you are a queen so put on your crown

Always remember radiate your own light

Remember you can always win the fight

Far better than a moment of pleasure

Your strengths will always be far beyond measure
