Still I Rise Poem by Bellaina Bella Hernandez

Still I rise from all the agonizing pain
very little is to be gained

I looked to the past
saw all the troubles
werent there to last
but there to bring me up

Looking to the future
seeing all that is to come
to begin the new torture
worse than what already been done

Finally I look at today
confused and lost
like in a dark cave
I refuse to give up
wanting to overcome
I rise and begin to walk
Hopefully I'll find my way
