I Am Not A Victim

Determined to persevere and never give up

Art By Author

I am not a victim of this barren ground,

With fear and despair as my only friend,

I plow bravely through the sand,

My torch is held high while my spirit ascends.

Tormented thoughts, a constant enemy,

Yet freedom calls right at hand,

My inner wisdom, a holy glow,

Enjoy cherished on the great beach of life.

What does it matter in the grand project?

The present genius, as I go along,

Each step is a triumph, a worthy dream,

There is no persistent defeat in my place.

A paradoxical moment, caught in flight,

Free or deeply in love, a sight to behold,

The best thing is to relax and feel it with all our might,

A story to be written, a tale untold.

The original poem is my inspiration, and I have used no creation elements of artificial intelligence, so in vogue today.
