his voice is like silk and whiskey
so smooth and oh so heady
bass tones breaking through the walls
i’ve carefully built around me
and when he says the things
i desperately need to hear
that i’m beautiful and that i matter
suddenly there’s nothing to fear
i’ll believe him for as long as I can
for this girl needs a little help now and then
to remember just how strong she really is
in a world filled with boys and wicked men
so keep whispering in my ear
share the world that you see
so i can see it too and know
that some days it’s okay to simply be
strong and beautiful
sometimes vulnerable
perfectly imperfect and
in your eyes, unstoppable
