shine
shine little light of mine
into the black of night
and show the world what it really means
to endure
be sure
that i will navigate
through the labyrinth of smog
youve set before me
to try in dissuade me
im not afraid
or at least i will choose not to be fears bitch
this is my life
not the life of fear
this is my body
not the body of pain
this is my heart
not the heart of hate
try to break me
you might kill me
but this light will never go out
i will never become you
i refuse to bow down
i refuse to bend low
i will stand
even when im beatten down
when im bloodied
even when death holds my broken form
i will stand

k.g.
