This is a story of a little girl
who grew up in a mean mean world
beaten and battered she held her head high
far too strong to let her soul die

she moved around from school to school
never real friends, just said to be a fool
but she was learning so much with eyes open wide
now uses her knowledge on her lifes ride

by the time whe was a teen shed seen it all
with one dad gone, the other would call
prejudice, violence filled her days
she always thought there must be better ways

At a tender young age she fell for a guy
who told her nice things, could they have been lies?
the security she wanted so bad.. was now hers
but the marriage didnt last, it just got worse

down, but not out, she rose again
eager to find the next thing to began
amazing but true she fell for another
this time more like friends, or even like a brother

they made a life with house and a boy
in the midwest where tornadoes are toys
but she yearned for more, wanted back in school
but he said NO! dont be a fool

Her choldhood thoughts, came with a screaming attack
she wanted out,and her independance back

She met a guy who helped her see
there was so much for her that she could be
she had the strength, the abilitiy to move
take the risk, even though you may lose

Its better to fail than to never try
I dont think you need to ask me why
so she turned her back and walked away
to hard work and uncertainty
she still had to pay

She fell in love, but her goals were set
nothing could stop her from she would get
and although the situation was not ideal
they found a way, so they could both heal.

The story's not over and theres not more to tell
at least at this point, in the middle of hell
but she knows it will improve, as she works to achieve
even more success , and she will never leave.
