Rise from the Ashes

In the shadows where silence weeps,

A tale of struggle, the past creeps.

Finding strength in every tear,

A journey of courage, facing fear.

Crammed in a crowd, the walls feel tight,

Echoes of pain in the dead of night.

Every sudden touch sends me reeling,

A heart once shattered, now healing.

But deep inside the scars remind,

A warrior’s heart, one of a kind.

Facing the dark, with fists raised high,

Can’t let the memories steal my sky.

I’m not just a survivor; I’m rising from the flames,

Each step that I take, I’m breaking these chains.

Peppermint whispers, I won’t fall apart,

This journey’s my battle, I reclaim my heart.

The smell of danger, it lingers still,

Yet I breathe in courage, I fight for my will.

Support like a blanket, it wraps me tight,

Together we shine, with unyielding light.

I learned to stand, I learned to fight,

From aching nights to morning light.

The past is a chapter, but not my fate,

I’m rewriting my story, it’s never too late.

I’m not just a survivor; I’m rising from the flames,

Each step that I take, I’m breaking these chains.

Peppermint whispers, I won’t fall apart,

This journey’s my battle, I reclaim my heart.

So here’s to the struggle, the scars that remain,

Each bruise is a badge, I will never be ashamed.

With every heartbeat, I find my way,

A phoenix reborn, from the ashes of gray.

So let the echoes of the past stay behind,

Tomorrow I’ll walk in the light I will find.

With strength in my soul and hope in my stride,

I’m not just a survivor; I’m alive, full of pride.
