Jan 2013
Today the wind came
And it blew me off my feet
Made way for heavy rains
Now I'm drowning in defeat
I wasn't focused on surviving
Until the water started rising
That's when I sunk deep
And I could have just kept falling
Get away
From the everyday
And just keep stalling
But I've never been a loser
Pride: My deadly sin
I'm not a beggar, I'm a chooser
Today I chose to win
So I kicked with all my might,
And swam until I was free
The rains put up quite a fight
But they were no match for me!
