“To Persist”

by @TitaHalaman

A man, with cacti in his hands,
 Sharp and silent, he dares to stand.
 Adoring thorns, he's unafraid He lifts the spikes with all their weight. A lesson etched in each scar's trace,
 Each prick a shadow, each wound a grace.
 To persist is not to flee— 
It’s to endure the thorns, and still be free.
