Strong Enough Poem by Chantal Lammerts

Sometimes, when the wind blows me away,
Or the sea is out to drown me, to take me in,
When everything suddenly sees me as a prey,
And I see that there’s no way at all for me to win,
It’s then that I doubt if I’m strong enough,
For this world has proven itself too cold, too tough.

But then you come along, and help me up again,
I say that I want to fly, so you give me your wings,
And even if I take you for granted, yes, even then,
You’re still there for me, as attached by unbreakable strings,
It is thanks to you that I am strong enough after all,
Because you are here, so I’m no longer afraid to fall.

Thank you, for being there for me through good and bad,
For supporting and comforting me, and never getting mad,
Thank you
