Rising Above
In the face of the tempest's rage,
I stood firm, I did engage.
Though fierce winds sought to overwhelm,
I refused to let despair helm.
Gathering strength, I held my ground,
Against the storm, I stood unbound.
Pushing through the darkest night,
I emerged into the morning light.
So let this tale forever be,
Of resilience and victory.
For in the depths, I did find,
The strength to rise and leave behind.
