"I'm crushed, smashed, yet I'm not defeated, I'm stormed, stunned, stound, still I'm not assaulted, Through shadows deep and winds so cold, I stand with strength, fierce and bold. Though battles rage and skies turn gray, I rise again to find my way, In every scar, a story told, Of courage, hope, and dreams untold. The weight of the world may press me down, But never will it make me drown, For in the darkness, a fire burns bright, Guiding me through the endless night. I bend, I break, but I don't fall apart, The fight within still fuels my heart, In shattered pieces, I find my grace, And walk with dignity in every space. Let the storms come, let the winds roar, I’ll rise each time, stronger than before, Unyielding, unbeaten, forever I'll strive, For in my soul, I’m truly alive." Rajeev... ©samandar Speaks
