Everybody on this earth
Has some situation
This that I endure
Is my complication

Although there are times
It can seem so unforgiving
It will never be a reason
For me to stop living

With the faith of friends and family
I hold on to hope
I'll continue with my life
As I endure and cope

And through my endurance
I have gained strength
To stand the test of time
No matter the length

Until the end of time
To all, I will show love
Hate, self-pity, jealousy
All these, I'll rise above

It might be an obstacle
But it's not a barrier
There's hope, strength and love
Of all these, I am a carrier

Some might call this a curse
I call it my drive
To rise to the world's challenges
And remain alive
