Poetry - Renewed Minds - By Yolanda Lear

Poetry taken from chapter 7 of my book 'The Journey To An Undefeated Mind'

I pictured myself, on top of the world

After fighting all these demons that be holding me down

I had to go on a journey, to find this Undefeated Mind

And I am not saying I can't be beaten,

I just won't stay down

I am not perfect,

I make mistakes

But I'm learning my lessons

earned some blessings through them

Now I’m stressing much less

I'm a testimony, to my creator

Call me evidence

No way that I can go a day without him

he's so relevant,

So, when I wake up in the morning,

I have to give him thanks,

Because he blessed me yet again,

Gave me life, so I'm pushing on

I got these scars deep beneath that no one knows

I had to learn how to self-heal

Coz I got some wounds that can't be treated in no hospitals

Had to realise it was trauma

I've been traumatised

Had to go through some battles, just to renew my mind

Had the bury the old me,

Just to step into some new shoes

Had to change my path,

Now I'm on the right track

Can't knock me of course

Confidence on lock, with this Undefeated Mind

I plan on continuing this journey till the end of my time.
