You stood tall and mighty,
'Till they burned you down,
But out of the ashes,
Rose a Pheonix,
Stronger than before,
Now they kneel at your feet,
And beg forgiveness,
Yet nothing can undo,
The pain they caused,
Turning the other cheek may be right,
But vengeance is so much sweeter

We are the strong. We are the proud. We are the broken. Who got up when we fell. Our stories are written in dust. Built from broken trails. The frail hands who raise their arms. Despite all the chaos.
