I Am... Scholarship Slam
I am a survivor, a Rose
I wonder about the world, how we all still stand out above the chaos
I hear leaves dying, butterflies crying
I see the moon and sun waving their arms
I want resolutions, to all the easy questions
I am a survivor, a Rose
I pretend the world has a plan for me
I feel the air around me, hug me
I touch the sun, for happiness and reassurance
I worry that we all might not reach ultimate happiness as a whole
I cry when I hear of an angel taking their last breath too young
I am a survivor, a Rose
I understand, the world doesn't spin for one person
I say, magic is real
I dream, reocurring nightmares
I try to make the shapes on paper come to life
I hope, everyone's best friend (cat or dog), will live as long as their friend does
I am a survivor, a Rose
