Superwoman

Once I was a little girl

With endless hopes and dreams

But into this world I was thrust

With too much naivety it seems

But I could never have foreseen

What lay ahead for me

As nobody should suffer so much pain

In any one life time you see

But the thing that is most important here

Is all that I have learned

That is that no matter how much life try’s to break me

There is no need to be concerned

As I have learned how strong I really am

And that I can face any challenge that comes my way

So I would not change what I have been through

As it had made me the woman I am today

So really my hopes and dreams were not crushed

As I dreamt that I would be a superwoman

And even though this was a childish dream

The truth is that this is whom I have been becoming
