This heart worn with valiance, refuses to surrender to adversity.
It’s silent wails and invisible tears are defiant of life’s tortuous ways.
It is scarred and impaled but it marches on with bravado.
Vicious words uttered to discourage it are no match for its resilience.
This brave heart roars louder than criticism.
Years of heartbreak have trained it to rise above the fiercest of tempests.
It will not fall at the will of an unworthy rival.
