To look

Strong sometimes is all you need to walk by or get by.

But to feel strong sometimes can be difficult to balance when so many things in life are being thrown at you.

To be a strong and caring woman and still be able to fight these battles and not have them taking a piece of you along the way.

Is the kind strength not everyone has and I’m not going to lie sometimes I don’t feel like I have it.

But I try to keep my strength up so no one walks all over me especially since sometimes words can’t help me and the stare of don’t mess with me works with so little effort.
