I fall to the ground
But spring higher with momentum
My worries surround
me, but I stretch and look past them
The rain turns to pour
But I can't get any wetter
I know this feeling
It couldn't get any better
My legs lead my stride
My chin shows my pride
My hands at my side
Guiding my movement
I wait and I thrive
I dip and I dive
I fight and survive
Live by this statement
Paper cut
scissor cut
Sword cut
Wound
All of them
can hurt but
can heal
soon
Author notes
Fight on!
