Raindrops hit the ground,
Everything hurts,
Can’t seem to move,
Thunder rumbles overhead,
Roll yourself over,
Rain begins to slow,
You try to remember,
Nothing comes to mind,
You touch your face,
Cuts across your brow,
Bruises on your cheek,
Memories flash in your head,
Blood covered shirt,
Slowly the past becomes clear,
Life knocked you down,
Love stabbed you in the heart,
Happiness abandoned you,
Left to slowly die,
Give up they told you,
No one wants you,
Not worth a ****,
Anger swells inside,
Revenge is your only thought,
Destroy that, which wronged you,
Pride reaches out its hand,
Helps you stand,
Pain grips your ribs,
You fall to your knees,
Doubled over in pain,
Breathing slows,
You begin to calm,
You feel alive,
You slowly get up,
A fire begins to burn inside,
Battered and beaten,
And yet you still stand,
Stumbling you walk into the light,
Back into reality,
Face all the evils of the world,
Take them all head on,
Rise from these ashes,
For you will never die…
