Short poem - facing challenges head-on. Realizing the internal refusal to give up.
Been a long year
Been a long day
Been a long night

I've lost, I've gained
I've lost again
But still I chase the light

I am alive
And I can fight
My battles are my own now

I can make it
If I break it
I'll remake it somehow-

Time to engage
Time to arrange
Time to break and realize

Potential on fire
Balance the wire
Never compare nor feel like

Like I'm wrong
Like I'm young
Like I'm old and we-ary

I want to inspire
Walk through the mire
Make it, my friend
This isn't the end
