And Like A Bird I Am I Rise Again.
And I'll Never Give Up
I sunk to the bottom of the ocean,
I stayed in the dark, gloomy depths
for many months.
The ocean became deeper,
My world became darker.
Finally, I saw a shimmer of light
Glaring from the surface of the ocean.
At first, I decided to abstain,
I put up a big fight;
Removed all the blocks from the
path of my flight.
The fire in me was burning bright,
And I was yearning to see the sunlight;
As my confidence alighted,
I spread my colorful wings,
Ready to face my plight.
I burst out of the ocean,
Setting my wings in motion;
And like the bird I am,
I rise again.
