The Strength

Your whole existence has been nothing but told one thing: To relent It would make everything so much easier for you if you did And you would fit in with everyone else No sense of purpose or anything But you chose not to heed the words and had a purpose Forcing the world out of the darkness Your parents informed you that you were inept in everything And just to yield It would make everything more uncomplicated They would love you and finally be a family Just like you desired Your teachers mocked your brilliance, no doubt fearing that you could achieve something They allowed bullying from your peers Hoping to devastate you and make you like them: No aim Just like them But you didn’t take heed to anything they say They were simply envious of you, and their words held no facts You showed no weakness as they flick insults at you They realize that you might rise above them, and they are frightened You showed too much potential for them to handle They want everything to stay the same forever The Darkness is familiar to them But despite everything, you stand victorious, and the light feels wonderful
