The serenity of the solace of existence finds its way
Onto the sighs of the eternal chaos, the strife of life in the dreariness finds something to say
Callous whispers of you not being good enough often creep into the hind
May your belief in yourself be so valiant that it leaves every taunt ever said far behind

Words that tear, words that enamor the soul true
Often, syllables recorded in the guise of sweetness hide malicious embrace under its sinew.
But only the truth of your stance deserves to be on a pedestal kept
The validation of others is a fleeting dream that brushes itself often under the carpet.

Maybe it's your light that irritates their demons in the deepest crevices of their skin
Maybe it is the true authenticity of your heart that leaves their shallowness akin
There shall be both lovers and haters who embrace your being
I hope you choose to believe in the voice that lies within

For the relentless ride that walks in the galloping stride
May you choose to hone your light and walk with your head held high and courage beside
Epiphanies that radiate, the only truth that beckons to be
Only your opinion of yourself is the one that truly holds the power of eternity 

The eternity of believing in yourself when the world seems to bleed you dry
Where your belief in thee beholds your triumph in every war that lies.
