Forward

Falling, falling apart.

What to do now?

Pick up the pieces,

Carry on?

Perhaps give up,

And just lie still.

To get up is to be,

Knocked down once again.

That idea,

Sickens me.

To get stronger,

One must rise.

Arise from the ashes,

Like the magnificent .

Rejuvenated, brilliant, shining.

Tripping, stumbling,

All part of life.

To stay down is to die,

To die is to surrender.

Want to try?

Go ahead,

Keep on,

Try again.

Give up and you fail,

Never give up and your win,

Is merely delayed.

Shine on,

Walk on,

Go on,

Just don’t stop,

Never stop.

Arise from the ashes,

Like the magnificent Phoenix.

Rejuvenated, brilliant, shining.
