Life may have taken more than you ever wanted to give
leaving you empty, broken, because all that you gave
a star...but inside, you are endlessly falling
struggling to smile...to hide the pain of living
yet, somehow, the truth trickles out
streaking down your face...
and you are crumbling
secretly serenaded by that enticing whisper
the devil urging you to surrender
even as the fires of war are dying
and you have been growing stronger, learning
humility, the way of a Holy warrior
brought to their knees
as you remember
your tears are only a symbol that once you loved
and love is nothing to be ashamed of...
as you remember
your scars are only an outward sign of healing
of an inner renewing
as you remember
character is the reward of persevering
when all Hell hopes that you will falter...
you are rising
because despite its sting
the truth is freeing
