I am just a girl

I am just a girl
I cry
I fall down
I lie 
But I get up
I am a fighter
Even when troubles seem ubiquitous
And I may be overly ambition
 
I am a girl with a dream
A dream to tackle
Metastasis
Carpal tunel syndrome 
And all the rest
I am a girl with a dream to be a doctor
A hero
 
I'm just a girl 
Just a girl that spent hours upon hours pouring over words
Words that stuck 
In the midst of being struck 
With equal dissonance 
From the harsh trial of the the world
That knows she will triumph
 
But then again I'm just a girl
Who struggles
Who cries
But nevertheless 
A girl out to help save the world
