She Refused To Settle For Less
Among the keepers of hope, and
Along the destroyers of faith-
World filled with doubting minds-
Where truth is weighed behind reason
Leaving people at the crossroads-
With markings of confussion all-over
Everyone picking sides
To embrace sense of belonging,
She refused to settle for less,
Carry her light with both hands-
And walk with pride and dignity,
While many hide with shame,
She stood the ground with faith-
When many try to justify immorality,
She refused to be shaken by the strong winds-
Never wanted to be victim of circumstances
Even when many were selling their souls
People sinking to the wilderness,
She still refused to settle for less
Holding tight to her victorious plan-
Bringing forth the message....
In this journey to achieve the greater reward-
One should refuse to settle for less
