Do You Need A Secure Place?

There are those that say,
That you need a secure place,
A secure place to design a child.

To feed that child,
To nurture that child,
And to protect that child.

To build the mind,
To build their mind,
And to create an intelligent mind.

What is more powerful than force?
It's the mind,
It's thoughts,
And it's ideas.

Girls don't heal,
It's what they say.

You want to punch them right in the feelings.

Dark, friendless, formless,
Harsh, powerful and violent;
This place can be,
This world can feel.

You may find your heart broken,
Like your childhood toys from China,
Your darkest secrets cannot be spoken,
Nor the great wall be broken.

Pain never ages.

Shots fired
Shall it become?

They say...
Girls do not heal.
Girls cannot heal.

What is more powerful than force?
It is His thoughts,
It is His ideas,
It Is His love.

Practice self-care,
Practice His care,
For trust in Him.

Be a model,
A role model to the world,
Be a foot soldier,
Be His foot soldier,
A foot soldier of good,
Good can do - you can do.

Practice self-care,
Practice His care, exercise love,
Exercise His love; to mend, to live,
To live a truthful existence,
A spiritual life - a peaceful life.

Now with God's presence, she is,
Grounded, strong - a shooting star;
As His living light shines through her.
