Of the Fallen
The world has not failed me.
I have failed the world.
But I cannot Rise until I have Fallen.
I know that there is hope in the world.
I know because I have hope in it.
The world shows the truth within me.
I shall prove it when the time is due.
Because I have Fallen for the last time.
So that I can Prevail.
WATCH ME AS I RISE AGAIN!
