If I could save just one life
If i could just save one life....
If the words you write can light just one flame,
Ignite the night,
end someone's pain.
We each have one arrow,
life’s bow to string,
Whatever life aims,
let your heart sing.
Take me,
for example,
I’m in life’s arena,
Fighting cancer's shadow,
my spirit’s ballerina.
Smile through the storm,
dance in the rain,
Even when days are tough,
endure the strain.
Some days are tempests,
waves crashing down,
Want to sink in the sorrow,
let tears drown.
But hold on tight,
here’s the way to stay strong,
Face the storm tomorrow,
keep moving along.
Always chase the dawn,
its golden thread,
Don’t look back at ghosts,
they’re better left dead.
Life’s a river,
let your emotions flow,
Free yourself from depression's undertow.
My life's a garden,
each bloom a new chance,
Fight through the weeds,
let your spirit dance.
Some days the rain falls,
chilling and cold,
But the sun breaks through,
your story unfolds.
In this battlefield of life,
hope’s my shield,
Slicing through doubts,
never to yield.
Shadows may cast their spell,
dark and broad,
But light up the night,
you’re the lantern’s prod.
Time ticks on,
each moment a beat,
Dance with the rhythm,
don't accept defeat.
In the storm’s chaos,
find your grace,
Smile through the madness,
keep pace.
Heartbeats are drums,
echoing life's call,
In the symphony of struggle,
rise tall.
Through valleys and peaks,
stand your ground,
In life's concert,
let your strength resound.
Through my pain,
I rise,
a phoenix in flight,
In this game of life,
I burn so bright.
If my words can save,
even just one soul,
Then my journey’s worth it,
I've reached my goal.
Stay strong,
let every moment gleam,
In this life,
climb every mountain,
chase every dream.
With a smile,
face the trials each day,
Live with hope,
let your spirit sway.
