Will Not Bow

Will Not Bow Having inner strength comes with a price, as you will see I've had to roll the dice, but with sweat upon brow, you'll see i didn't bow. I have had a struggle for two, and witnessed more tradegy than anyone should do. I have made bad choices that caused pain in others, and shook the trust i had gained from brothers. I have lied, cheated, and remained emotionally closed, and kept the true me from being exposed. It was hard for me to start over, to search for luck among the clover. With no guidelines as to where I should go, I found freedom in life's sweet glow. I found inspiration in human life, and help guide other through their strife. To give others what I did not have before, a true sense of strength to clamore for. To stand out front a crowd, to shine without a frown, for this is what I vowed and what I placed upon crown. To fight for others when they bow out, to plant a seed of hope and watch it sprout. Into strength mighty as oak, and into a life that is no laughing joke. With a little inner strength and inspiration, I will stand for the longest duration, and help others become the best they can be, I will lead them to their highest degree. - Darla Biggerstaff
