I'Ll Rise Some Day
When respect becomes a dreaded dream
Acceptance,unending nightmare
When the world grows bigger
My existence,almost unnoticed
Like a wasted worthless salt
Laid at the corner of some deserted castle
Only to be remembered oftenly
When option becomes a compromised choice
I still believe this,I'll rise some day
When the dawning showers me periodically
With suffocating boutiques of struggle
And the night,blankets me to a deep slumber
Chock-full of harrowing pains
When my morning chorus seems suffering
And the midday hymn booms with stagnation roses
I still believet this,that I will rise
Slowly it may seem,but surely I will
Because my clinging tree is hope
Tiny as a mustard seed
But deep rooted like Abraham's faith.
