Her heart was an open book with beautiful pages and detailed lettering. She wanted people to read her story in hopes that it would make them write their own. Instead, every person who came across the pages of her heart ripped out their favorite story and took it with them. They folded back pages and bent up corners. They signed their name with sloppy writing and with a simple 'goodbye'. This book is now tucked away in the darkest parts of her, because no one wants to read a tragic story with a bad ending.


I've faced the lows, the struggles, the adversity

But I won't back down, I've got the tenacity

Perseverance my weapon, I forge ahead

Like a rebel, I rise from the ashes, no shred

I'm on that unstoppable grind, ain't no stopping me

Through the fire and the pain, I'ma set myself free

With every step I take, I'm leaving my mark

Perseverance in my veins, its what sets me apart

No matter how hard they try, they can't break me

I brush off the haters, they can't shake me

I'm hustling day and night, making moves slick

Unfazed by the setbacks, I persist thick

So don't you tell me what I can't achieve

I'll prove y'all wrong, can't you perceive?

My perseverance is my driving force

I flip the script, change my life's course
