Against all odds.

I developed a thick skin,
They tried to break me and throw me into a trash bin,
Murmurs and making fun of me,
But I let it slide and let them be.

Side talks don't get to me,
Momma taught me to be soft and mean,
Mean that I don't get bothered by what they say,
Soft that I can feel at the end of the day.

So I walked away,
To a place, I could find solace, pray and stay.

My mental health means a lot to me,
Happiness and peace of mind are key,
Whatever will get me down on my knee,
Is to be connected to thee.

So I walked in between the trees,
There I was alone with my thought and free,
Curled up in my dreamworld,
To be back again, me against the real world.

I shall not cower,
For I've got superpowers,
From God and my thoughts,
To fight them all against all odds.

Yeah, developing thick skin is very vital for daily survival because people must talk.

There are moments that make us rediscover ourselves and thus achieve an emotional balance that allows us to keep peace in our hearts and loneliness becomes a good companion. Good poetic text. Best regards.

Una escritura profunda. Me gusta ese significado que guarda de trasfondo, de algo indecible, como una padecencia o una condición que se asume y se acepta honorablemente. Que bien, es un escrito maravilloso que te deja mucho a pensar. Suerte @amiegeoffrey

I used to not care what people said about me by these days I analyse if the bad things they said it's true if it's true I try to fix that weakness because people who hates us the most will find out flaws in everyway sometimes it's good to have someone who hates us so we can find the weakness that needs to be improved.

That's how I think at least

This is another beautiful angle, use their words to fix your weakness and be a better version of yourself.

Nice to have you here.

The daily struggle that we exert on the world should not stop us, walk, fall and get up, facing the hail that hits hard. Very good job.

Thanks for sharing.
Good day.

I loved this. Especially this:

Side talks don't get to me,
Momma taught me to be soft and mean,
Mean that I don't get bothered by what they say,
Soft that I can feel at the end of the day.
