Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

Strong Enough


I'm strong enough to stand
Even when the game plan
Goes in another direction
I'm strong enough
To look at my reflection
As my guide and protection
I'm strong enough
To walk away
And not let what people say
Cause me to forget who I am
I'm strong enough
To listen, learn, and teach
So that I can reach
Anyone who has a hand out
I'm strong enough
To shout
That life is not easy or fair
But if you stare the devil in the eyes
Sometimes he hides.
