You'll knock me down,
But that's okay.
You'll beat at my pride.
But that's okay.
You'll try your hardest to knock me down.
But I'll just stand up again.

Here I am,
I'm standing tall,
Taking your punches,
Abosorbing the pain,
I don't see why I'm a punching bag,
Yet it doesn't matter because I'm standing.
I'm standing tall.

Kiss my arse you son of a gun,
And if you yell at me,
Then you are gonna get some,
Punch me and I'll punch right back,
You'll get the blame if your punch lands.
For I'll just get right back up,
You'll have to throw another,
For I will never stay down,
You argument will be torn asunder.

Here I am,
I'm standing tall,
Taking your punches,
Abosorbing the pain,
I don't see why I'm a punching bag,
Yet it doesn't matter because I'm standing.
I'm standing tall.

I'm tired of being the punching bag,
That just lays there and takes a beating,
I'm not just a doll to be used and discareded,
I'm a human being,
Not just some animal you can beat whenever you feel like it.
From now on I won't take any crap,
I'll just get right back up.

Here I am,
I'm standing tall,
Taking your punches,
Abosorbing the pain,
I don't see why I'm a punching bag,
Yet it doesn't matter because I'm standing.
I'm standing tall.

Do NOT assume you know me,
Just because you used to know who I was,
My heart changes, as well as my beliefs.
My soul resides within me,
Shown only to one person,
And one person alone.
They know who they are,
And they do not assume they know me,
Because they really do know me.
So punch away, the consequences won't be mine,
I will have my friends to always pick me up,
and they will forever help me to stand.

Here I am,
I'm standing tall,
Taking your punches,
Abosorbing the pain,
I don't see why I'm a punching bag,
Yet it doesn't matter because I'm standing.
I'm standing tall.

Forever and ever,
I'll continue to stand,
For idea's are bulletproof,
They will forever live on,
So forever I will stand with backup,
Forever I will stand tall,
Just try to stop me.
Just try.

I've just realized that I've really changed. I used to just take the punches and names that people threw and called, and I'd back away and not get back up, even if it was something I believed in because I didn't want to fight.

But now I realized that even if the odds are 50:1, that I will fight for something I believe in. I will not back down no matter how hard I get beaten and bruised. No matter the cost, I'll continue to stand tall and take what is dealt. I'm not going to be the weak little girl anymore. I will fight for what I believe in. I'm tired of being walked all over, I'm tired of all the drama. I'm going to stand up for myself from now on. I'm not going to rely on my knights to do that for me. They can do their part, and defend me as they choose, but if people get to me, they won't find the passive girl I was. They will find a fighting dragon with teeth bared, ready to take on the worst.

I really don't know what to say. It's horrible that you have to go through what you do. I can't tell you how sorry I am for that.

I'm glad that you know you're friends are there for you. That's a very important thing to understand.

I'll always be around too, to help you through those times. I'll always be here.

the passionate resilience you have shown is inspiring. i sincerely admire the self-confidence and authenticity emanating from your survival of such perils.

we're all born into an existence that initially conforms us to an innocence of passiveness and naivety, but the trials and tribulations of reality empower us with the experiences necessary for defending ourselves with an assertive vigilance; the ability to foresee our protection.

The great challenges you've overcome have evidently granted you true revelations of wisdom.

Thank you so much for the comment. I haven't read this in quite and awhile and I needed to read it again. :)
