Standing Tall

Standing Tall

A Poem by C. Lee Battaglia
"

I stand taller

"

Standing tall

 

I’m standing tall

Standing tall

No one can make me fall

People stair at me from down the hall

People shout and call

You’re gunna fall

Gunna fall

No one will stand next to you

Next to you

There is nothing you can do

You can do

The wind of words how they blew

How they blew

For all they knew

There was nothing that I could do

I could do

I’m here

And I have no fear

Have no fear

I shall not shed a tear

Shed a tear

I am standing tall I cheer

I cheer

They look and sneer

Be careful now and watch your fear

Watch your fear

I look them in the eye and say

There is nothing that you can do today

Can do today!
