survivor
I'm a survivor,
Climbed the highest mountain,
And made it to the other side.
I'm a survivor,
Fought the most difficult wars with my mind,
And I'm still alive.
I'm a survivor,
I braved through the pain of loss,
And found a semblance of peace.
I'm a survivor,
Even when I let the words get to my head,
I didn't let the demons devour me.
I'm a survivor,
I've been dragged down and abused by love,
Yet came out flourishing.
I'm a survivor,
Even if I only have a small part of me left,
It's something to hold onto.
I'm a survivor,
I won't let you define me,
Not after everything I've managed to beat.
Cause I'm a survivor.
I can do anything,
When I put my mind to it.
// R.M.
