Inner Beauty
Many folks may not see where my inner beauty lies
It's internal and everlasting residing inside
Many mountains and hills of obstacles to climb
Conquering each one claiming the victory mines
This wide open space of life for me to see
unknown places and people waiting for me to meet
though there is a struggle each day just to make it through
sometimes push in a corner not knowing what to do
With my will to do better by believing in myself
never measuring my success through the values of money nor wealth
I'm an optimist you see believing I'm bound to great things
While I cheerfully enjoy this world and the treasures it brings.
