The steel in me…
What firms me up?
What builds me up?
How does one grow?
What waters a seed I sow?
The steel in me…
Can I be ruthless?
Can I be compassionate in the face of hurt?
Can I be loyal when it’s not truly deserved?
Can I be loyal when it is and I’m the one changed?
The steel in me…
Would I do anything in my life again?
Even if I know the consequences?
Would I change anything?
Would I grow differently if I could?
The steel in me…
Can I firm my vision?
Can I meet my strength fully?
Can I find my bravery in the face of my power?
Can I let my light shine without apology?
The steel in me…
Can I meet the Seductress with steel?
Can I meet the Writer with steel?
Can I meet the woman with steel?
Can I meet the girl with steel?
Can I meet my life with steel in me?
Can I make my visions happen?
Can I take my life on the road I choose?
Can I live out loud?
Can I love and be loved day in and day out?
Can I weave of my life all that I dream?
Yes.
