By Joycelyn Johnson

Stand tall like a flower,

hold all the power,

don’t let them devour

your confidence.

They will talk the talk,

walk the walk,

but don’t ever think

that you’re not great.

No matter what they say,

don’t let them get away

you’re not enough.

Stand strong and proud,

hold your ground,

even though that gust of wind

is waiting to knock you down.

Their words will hurt,

but wipe off the dirt,

put on your best shirt,

and prove them wrong.
