I shall make a promise to myself
To look within and see
The beauty that resides
In the very heart of me

I shall learn to love the girl
That God created here
To accept who I am
And live life without fear

I am blessed among women
In health and in strength
I am granted intelligence
I am surrounded by grace

I am given imagination
Dreams varied and full
Passions about living
Days of laughter and soul

Why then does my heart cry
My soul often weary
Why then should I fear
Others won’t tarry

I am good enough
I am kindness and faith
Why then should I fear
I shall lose my place

Within your heart
Within your thoughts
I fear I am nothing
To be left for naught

I promise myself
To look in the mirror
To remember I am
To see myself clearer

S.A.T.
