I will survive



Life can make you,or life can break you.It is up to your will to live.I go forward to the fullness of life.Oh yes I am a mom,and also a wife.I strive each and every day,as I fall down on my knees and pray.I have the will to live a full happy life I endure the heartache, hurt and strife.I will endure what life cast out,I am determined to live I have no doubts.for I will survive.some days I'm up,some days I am down I refuse to walk around with a frown for I will survive.look up to the sky at the beautiful stars,I would love to fly someday to mars.a wishful dream I know in my mind,I can go any where for things to find.a dreamer! Oh yes that's me,happy, jolly, and running free. For I will survive!
