Like A Phoenix

Am I good enough?

Am I worthy?

Will others love me?

Oh, do I look pretty?

My belly looks ugly,

I want to be thin,

My hair is greying, 

I hate my double chin.

Am I a good mom?

Am I a good wife?

I want everything perfect,

Perfect home, family and a perfect life.

My house's a mess,

They think I'm not good enough,

But nobody knows my struggles,

Or that my life is tough. ⁷

Doubts, doubts, doubts, 

I am full of them,

 I don’t believe my inner strength,

Accepting all the condemn. 

But I will keep on trying,

The door's not yet shut,

You'll not be able to crack me,

For I am one tough nut.

I will not give up easily, 

I will keep the fight,

And in the end, I know,

I will make things right.

No matter what they think of me,

No matter what they gossip, 

I’m going to shine in my light,

I will never lose the grip.

I’ll never allow people to judge me, 

I won’t let them pull me down,

Why do I seek assurance from others?

I'll still be a queen, without a crown.

Like a phoenix I will rise,

Reach the heavens, soar the sky,

I'll never doubt my worth again,

Without wings, I’m going to fly, 

Yes I’m going to fly.
