Calm seas have never produced Skilled and able sailors In the intensity of crashing waves Is where you find your valor Winds slashing, lightning flashing No hurricane could make us cower Calloused hands grip rope with strength Moonlight guides our darkest hours Treacherous times, character defining Crow eyes survey, suspended in the tower Battle tested facing death, ready for any challenge Our sails stand true, unwavering in thrashing showers Razor blade rain soaks salt stained skin Quitting just isnt a viable option We need to prove it to ourselves that we can make it through this Dark clouds take the shape of haunting faces Taunting us with their sneering glowers Fear crys out but the voice of courage sings louder Surviving is the proof of ability, for which we search and scour Empowered by overcoming what means to devour us Rain accumulates into oceans of wisdom Experience blossoms, self confidence flowers If we hide when life gets rough
