I Am Me

The scars of time have disappeared,
My blood, so cold, is now ice,
To poison 've turned once pure tears -
You see me in my other guise.

I'm only struggling for survival,
And I'll withstand by any means.
The whole world and me are rivals,
But in the end I'm bound to win.

My faith - my fortitude - is stronger
Than air castles of your lies,
And not a single minute longer
I'll be a shadow in your eyes.

across the land of dreams. In your heart, I'd always be.

The closing lines are just wondeful and so full of determination.

Thank you for a nice powerful poem on this morning

"And not a single minute longer
I'll be a shadow in your eyes"
From a such position of strength,
a heart can survive anything.
