Though you try your very hardest to break my morale
I will keep on standing: fight till the bitter end
My desire is to protect myself respect, remaining as dignify as you
Cannot buckle down - this is a mission must completed
I will not submit to your needs
May have appeared to obey your commands but always
I'll be true to myself; do what is believed to be right
You feel good about yourself by making me look small
Oh no, NO! Play along with you let it seemed you're
in charge really I am. No one holds the key to my inner peace
Only I do! Hear my words twisting it to suit your
intentions; you're made up of destroying definitions
Aware of the cunning tricks that goes on; my attitude is not
to be crushed: looks like I've surrender, throwing in the towel
There's a force greater than you: it's coming to rescue me from your clasp.
I'm going to use it the way you've used me
taking control of my being; the fibre which made me strong
I've gained it back - I'm whole again

I am one of those people who has been let down. As you point out, there is always the chance to recover from a setback.

I would like to translate this poem
I am sorry to read that you were betrayed by a friend. That can happen to any of us. At least you have brushed it off, and are 'going places'.
