Still, You Rise Again

You’ve got this, whatever it is you are going through. You will get through it.

When the world feels heavy in your chest,

And quiet doubts won’t let you rest

When every step feels twice as far,

And you forget how strong you are

---

Remember this: you’ve made it through,

Each storm that once dismantled you

The nights you thought would never end,

Still bowed to dawn around the bend

---

You are not just what broke apart,

But every piece rebuilt with heart

A masterpiece in slow repair,

With golden strength in hidden wear

---

There’s magic in your unseen fight,

In choosing hope instead of night

In every tear you didn’t show,

In every time you chose to grow

---

So stand again, though knees may shake,

There’s beauty in the chance you take

The fire in you never died,

It learned to burn more deep inside

---

And one day soon, you’ll turn and see,

How far you’ve come, how wild, how free

Not just because you didn’t fall,

But ‘cause you rose - in spite of all
