Finding Strength

(A poem inspired by Christina Aguilera song titles)

In this Fighter within me,
I seek the light of Beautiful days,
With every struggle, I learn to be,
A warrior through the Bionic haze.

Genie in a Bottle, I’m yearning to be free,
Unmasking the pain that’s kept me confined.
Through the echoes of Hurt, I finally see,
That it’s okay to feel, it’s okay to be kind.

In this world where Ain’t No Other Man can judge,
I rise from the shadows, my heart starts to mend.
With every Reflection, I won’t hold a grudge,
Embracing my journey, I learn to transcend.

So here’s to the strength found in sharing our fears,
To the What a Girl Wants when she knows the score.
Men can be vulnerable, shed silent tears,
Finding Liberation, together we soar.
