RESILIANCE

Blondes have fun; brunettes get it done

Some die fast for meaningless pleasure

I find myself slowly under the gun of pressure

Pain brings progress; progress brings treasure

Under my dark eyes, there lay a sea of light

My heart is purer than cocaine; all white

My purpose has me up; through the day and night

When challenges come my way; I plan and fight

May you feel uplifted by the verses I write !
