Golden Self


I'm really scared
It just hit me last night
I need to change my ways
I need to put up a fight
People walk all over me
And I accept this as okay
I need to stand up for myself
And I need to pave my own way
To somewhere great
A beautiful place
Where love overpowers
And I can look myself in the face
Where the best treasure is myself
And no one can take that away
Where I respect and love myself, every piece
And I know I'm golden through every night and every day

    Your golden smile and personality should take you far, and you do have a treasure within yourself that is so very special.
