Stronger Than You Think

I don’t know how I’ll make it through, but I know I will
You’ve thrown daggers into my back
I’m hemorrhaging from all the stab wounds, but I’m still going
I’m not living; I’m only surviving
I haven’t given up though
I pulled those daggers out myself
Most people would’ve thrown them back at you, but not me
I know that hurt people hurt people and you are only doing this to try to cope with your own struggles
You’ve knocked my down multiple times, but I will not stay down
I will persevere and I will not give up, no matter how hard you try to stop me
While you are worrying about me being as good as you are or better, I am focusing on achieving my goals despite what you do or do not achieve
I forgave you and while I hope you learn from this and improve yourself, I am not worried about what you might do and I’m definitely not afraid of you
