Independence


Are you looking for a helping hand
to lift you and help you stand?
A grownup needing a leaning post,
someone to steer when rough seas approach,
but I’m not a giver of sympathy.
We’ve all faced life’s negativities
and the tougher we fight, the stronger we grow.
No lesson is learned if you call your hero.
So dust off your shoulders and rise to your feet,
shout back at this world that you won’t take defeat.
