So convinced that my heart was void,
but my love cannot wither and that leaves me overjoyed.
To know that no one can break me,
is what I know for sure will aid to make me.

Able to fearlessly reach out for what I hold in my heart,
as for more than long enough we have been apart.
Love and me as I've kept it at bay,
but now I know that it's going to be okay.

To let myself feel what I once dared to dream,
marvelling in its gloriousness as I grin and beam.
So my guard I allow to fall,
as for the first time in my life I feel whole.

Truly I love me with all of my being,
stepping into a whole new light as the other side of me I am seeing.
Loving more and more what I once abnegated,
good things have came my way now that I have waited.

Stepping out of my shell as I see things so clear,
blinded before as to the situation I was so near.
I know now that it wasn't my fault,
so my heartache and pain grinds to a halt.

Every one of you that tried to knock me down,
I'm the Jill in the box it's you that is the clown.
For deluding yourselves that you'd make me fall,
I guess you never knew me AFTER ALL?!?
