Introducing my stubborn self

Dig in my heels
Arms fold across chest
Go ahead and try
Do your best

Nobody can tell me
What to do
Not one soul
Not even you

I’ll do it when I’m ready
What a great excuse
There’s too much to give up
And too much to lose

Even though it’s not working
I’ll stand my ground
Put up my “dukes”
Ready for the next round

You sit and ask questions
What do I need?
Do you really even care?
Just another good deed?

It’s time to accept me
Just as I am
Use faith, trust and love
Be willing to surrender
Light as a feather
On the wings of a dove
