Victory is mine

The Battle dropped in my lap

But I rise above it

Remembering that victory is coming

Many events have occurred

Many roles being played

Some of them are assigned

I chose to take on role of victor

I am embracing this role

No one assigned it to me

It was assigned by me

I will stand in what my life

Will bring through

I will stand and know

that every choice is mine

Every decision comes from within

My freedom is my victory

My voice is the way in it

Sometimes I speak out

Other times, I keep quiet

Not because I have lost my power

But because I dont care to share it

My strength and power come from within

Within the depths of my soul

Within the quiet of my heart

I will stand tall

I will stand proud

I have reigned over the battles

I stood when others were knocked down

I stood and protected

I stood and withstood it all

The storm has come and gone

It left behind a newness

It left behind a strength

The strength was always there

Many passed it on to me

I am grateful

I am not fearful of what lies ahead

I look at my future as only mine

No one can tell me what it will be

I can rest in knowing that the worst

is far behind me

I just have to flow into what is now

Freedom from it all

Freedom from the life it was

Freedom to what will be

I have conquered the battle

I have fought the war

I have nothing to prove to anyone

I stand in who I am

I like who I am

I am free in who I am

Quiet intensity

It will always follow me

It makes me love hard and love long

Loving me is where I am now

Loving every part of me

Every part that makes up me

I will use what was meant to hurt me

To be used as my strength to continue through

Continue on to the victory my life story will be.
