You find me when I walk alone - are my companion when I'm on my own. Standing by me in a rowdy crowd, you encourage me TO SPEAK ALOUD. There are times I know you grapple with fear but instinctively know when it's time to appear. Rising up, you hold my hand and walk me through this desolate land. Giving me a voice when some have none; only we know how far we've come. I want to say thank you. You punched that bully in the face; gave me strength to run the human race. And from the ashes you raised my voice giving this woman what I like to call choice.

An Ode to Courage
You find me when I walk alone - are my companion when I'm on my own. Standing by me in a rowdy crowd, you encourage me TO SPEAK ALOUD. There are times I know you grapple with fear but instinctively know when it's time to appear. Rising up, you hold my hand and walk me through this desolate land. Giving me a voice when some have none; only we know how far we've come. I want to say thank you. You punched that bully in the face; gave me strength to run the human race. And from the ashes you raised my voice giving this woman what I like to call choice.
