You can't throw life away
You have to rely on you
You don't need a man
You just have to take care of you
Sometimes that is best in life

To other people you are ugly
But you don't care what they say
Your beautiful in your own
Special way

When people talk down to you
You don't let them get to you
Let what they say go in one ear
And out the other

Inner strength is what you have

Cold hands means a warm heart

How true that all is.

What is life without poetry and adventure?
"Little sister" is just another way of saying "Guardian Angel"!

This poem is highly inspirational. But could be written for anybody with this change of lines. You don't need outer influence instead of You don't need a man. Loved it anyway.
