Watch Me

As I rise up from the ashes...

 

Watch me grow

as time flies by.

I have got my strength to show

and my morals to live by.

 

Watch me run

straight back into the world.

Right into the horizon's sun

no matter the heat or the cold.

 

Watch me fly

into the shining stars.

The battlefield is the sky

for my own personal wars.

 

Watch me live

for my unrealized dreams.

Fighting for what I believe

the hope that stronger than it seems.

I truly like the thoughts behind this post.. striving for what you want, determined to achieve what you want from life and, in a good way.

Your words are very controlled in spite of the inner the battle you're dealing with: 'Watch me fly / into the shining stars. / The battlefield is the sky / for my own personal wars. '


Fine post. Thank you for sharing.

Fighting back is our response to life's challenges. Survival is the goal behind every attempt. Such a moving piece.

The flying and speed factors in this very accurately and positively describe freedom and at the same time describe reaching goals and being able to do whatever you want.

I like this poem a lot. Good work it's excellent
