standing i remain
in the book of life im trapped on a lonely page
read and judged by all from such an early age
feelings crushed and pride led astray
searching feverously for words but none am i able to say
but yet
standing i remain
slapped and pushsed violently thrown down
poeticaly i rise to stand my ground
visual to other eyes there is no pain
but inside emotion pours from the heart like falling rain
but yet
standing i remain
continuous attacks on my inner core
imposable journeys i must endure
all the while suppressing my growing rage
as i quietly act the role on lifes big stage
but yet
standing i remain
through all the conflict and battles i have been made to face
my animocity i have kept shrouded and encased
i have trained myself to adapt to the day
not to sucome to the ignorance that others play
for in the end when i am laid in the ground
on my stone these simple words shall be found
STANDING I REMAIN
