Courage

Each step forward rewrites the tale,  

A whisper of courage where doubt might prevail.  

Though stumbles have marked the chapters gone by,  

The story ascends, reaching toward the sky.  

A misstep may sting, a fall may bruise,  

But every rise grants a path to choose.  

Through broken lines and jagged prose,  

A new beginning eternally grows.  

The road behind may bear its weight,  

Of trials endured, of twists in fate.  

Yet forward lies a page unturned,  

A space where dreams are slowly earned.  

Each falter is ink, each climb a pen,  

Crafting a narrative again and again.  

For the story of strength is never done,  

It’s written with each step toward the sun.  

So let the stumbles shape, not define,  

The arc of your journey, the climb of your spine.  

For the script is yours, the pen in hand—  

Each step forward, a story grand.
