Empowered through the dark.

A spark, when doused with water,

‘Tis still a spark within its core,

A nut fallen from a tree,

Can grow strong thus produce more.

A tiger seemingly downed in battle,

Can be the one to win the fight,

Sometimes adjusting one’s perspective,

May be what’s needed to evolve beyond one’s plight.

Sometimes we’re thrown upon a path,

That is far from what we’d choose,

Far from comfort, far from our leisure,

Loaded with pain and elements to confuse.

Yet harnessing this raw power,

And evolving through the harsh discomfort,

‘Tis what can empower one through the dark,

To rise on the other side stronger and triumphant.
