IT WASN'T DEATH, FOR I STOOD UP!



The pains that won't go away, the memories of yesterday that never cease, the critism that eats you deep inside, the tears that doesn't flow due to the bitterness of the heart inside, am not blind  that's how I see the world now, am alive but I can't tell when last I breath, every little thing I have my sweat paid. I know am strong, stronger than my emotions, than my lapses, than my
Imperfections, than who they think I am, I'll keep fighting," FIGHT" till I counter my world
and have an edge over it, till I stamp my feet over it and walk like the lion that I am.
