My strength doesn’t come from not caring

Not from being uninvolved

My strength comes from doing,

What I think is right

Honesty and acceptance

My strength comes from love

I know I can be kind,

And do what is necessary

I feel all of it

I know how to stuff it down,

Continue on my way

I know when to feel it,

And when it’s time to say

I did what I could,

What is right

And walk away
