I awake this morning just
like the rest
Feeling the familiar in
and out compression
of my chest
But this time it feels just
a little different
An energy rising in me so
close so intimate
After thoughts flood my mind
of my most painful defeat
Visions paint a vivid picture
of myself broken staring
at my feet
I never thought I would have
the energy to battle on
Especially after the last defeat
when I heard the ends
marching song
So I gather myself and face my
defeat again
But this time I will stand my
ground because I plan
to win
The wings of doubt will not take
it’s flight
Not while I still breathe and
have the will to stay and
fight
I rise now to face my foes
with undaunted purpose
My face lighting up to show
my will revealing itself
on the surface
When faced with defeat after
defeat I will never be
discouraged
I can always rally and look
for strength in my
rising courage
