My body was once a temple
it was also once a tomb
and I held on to all of that pain
and the impending sense of doom
But I watched myself quite closely
as I turned right into mush
and I learned the lesson fully
God knew I could handle way too much
I didn't back down to sobbing
and I didn't stop to throw up
I walked fiercely towards wellness
and I never once gave up
If I thought about the sorrow
I'd experience it with grace
even though the tears ran out of me
and the hurt, it swelled my face
I'd blow my nose
and then move on
to what I had to do
because powerful women don't slow down
they just push right on through
