I AM STILL STANDING (poem)

I’ve weathered many storms and trials
Yet through it all, I still stand tall
My roots go deep, my branches strong
I’ve faced the darkness for so long

The winds may howl, the rain may fall
But I remain unbroken, standing tall
I bend but never break, I soar
Through every challenge, I endure

I’ve been battered, bruised, and scarred
But I refuse to be marred
I’ll keep on standing, come what may
For in the end, I’ll find my way

So let the world throw all it can
I’ll rise above, I’ll take my stand
For in the end, I know I’m strong
And I’ll keep standing, all along.
