My Strength

In shattered dreams, I found my strength
Boldly facing loss, my heart did ache
Conquering fears, I rose at length

Through endless nights, I burned with fire
Burning midnight oil, my soul did aspire
Crowned with triumph, my heart did desire

The world may laugh, may joke, may scorn
But I stood firm, my vision unsworn
Conquering all, I rose to morn

For others, it was a distant gleam
But I made it real, my heart's esteem
Choosing few, who stood through the storm

And now I shine, with heart aglow
Basking in the glory, that I've sown
Celebrating victory, forever to grow
