Fortitude
I'm easy to push around,
But it's never easy
To break me down.
I'm one who tends to cry,
But I will never
Let myself die.
I can be so naïve,
But at least
I try to perceive.
I can be a little vulnerable,
But at most I am able
To stand right back up.
I'm easy to put down,
But it's never easy to
Burn my spirit out.
I'm one who rebels:
I won't conform to spells.
I can seem weak,
But when I fall down
I always get back up
From the ground.
