Storm winds blew, billowing through darkened streets,Shifting the landscape beneath my feet,Causing me to slip and slideFinding nowhere safe to hide.

Hard times surround us in life Surrounding with darkness Shadow days of trouble and strife Seeking to steal my breath. But fallen, I choose to rise Rising like a lion proud I lift up my head to the skies Knowing your light is all around.
