I Have

I have lived a thousand lives
I have fallen but I rise.
I have seen what most cant bare
Many moments brought a scare.
I have swam in unprofitable waters
Watch predators destroy our daughters.
I have endured torrential rains
Filled with the innocence pain
I have walked amongst the dead
Broken from words that were said
I have rolled around in graves
Graves that no one cared to save.
