Life School

Through the valley of dreams, rests alive Emotion called fear, taunting courage Challenging to fight a mental battle Defying sanity to drown in a well Floating with instinct of winning Surviving ruses brought by wicked Emerges a strengthened soul Shining with a radiant face Path of rocks are walked in life Hidden with intention of undermine Pillars of esteem and motivation Conquered with determination For What Doesn't Kill Us Sponsored by Laura Loo Third Place 3/6/2017-64 words
