Maybe All One Can Do Is Hope


On I will go.

A fire burning in this soul.

Over me, you have no control.

Your childish games no longer will I play.

The whole board I saw today.

I care how your story ends.

It is my strength, that you do not contend.

You will see me for who I am.

The nothing you think you have made me to be.

Instead, this epic world I rebuild for all to see.

You still have no power over me.

Go on your way.

Go on about your day.

This is my win.

No longer will this be a zero-sum exercise.

Out of these ashes, watch me rise.

When I look back on this moment, with all my glee.

You have to live with what you did to me.

For all your games, your drama, your controlling schemes.

All you did was create a stronger me.
