For Every Woman
This is for every woman
that cries herself to sleep
that lies alone in bed at night
that stays awake, unable to sleep
This is for every woman
that is scared of being hurt again
that has been left behind, heartbroken
that needs to be given something to believe in
This is for every woman
that needs to feel wanted
that wants to feel desirable
that feels like no one even cares
This is for every woman
that has loved another freely
that shows how much she cares
that accepts others for who they are
You are beautiful.
Everything will be okay
if you can believe in yourself.
But most of all, please love yourself.
