The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Still Standing

i am standing
10ft tall
but not in height
but that's how i feel
i was knocked down
beaten and bruised
some one said i
would never make it 
but here i am 
i'm still growing
i'm even taller
than i was before
it was funny when you
said that guess what
im still standing
