when your whole life
as long as you can remmeber
everyone around you
has told you exactly
what you cannot do
when all you know is the work NO
when all you know
is what you will never have
it makes it hard to believe
hard to understand
hard to comprehend
that there are people in the world
that tell you the opposite
there are people in the world
telling you what you can do
pushing you to be your best
holding you accountable
people loving you
people saying GO for it
supportive, honest, caring people
i can now say i have seen both sides
Ive been told all my life
what cant be
you will never make it
you wont see tomorrow
you cant do that
you shouldn't try that
you should knock it off
ugly weak and broken
i have heard no for so very long
now i am hearing the opposite
Go for it they say
we will back you
we will support you
we love you, you can do this
you have everything you need
you are strong
beautiful
better every day
it can be hard to believe
that these words are true
two totally different world
which one to live in
which one to choose
its my choice to make
its not an easy one either
i want to believe
i can be what they say i am
i want to see what they see
i want to love and be loved the way they do
they say i already have it
i want to accept it
Jesus dies so that I could
he lives so that i can
i know its possible
he can make it so
God please make it so!
I want to be yours
I want to be whole
I want to hear you say Yes
just a Yes from you
