Sometimes the Day Is the Poem <3
But our hearts will need us
To be steady and strong
So we can stand and face the fire
Burning higher and higher
No way over it
No way around it
If we want it
We have to go through it
Fight for a love
And the world tries to break us down
But the world will bend and the fight will end
Love will always win
Mary Carroll-Hackett: Poetry and Prose
