I've covered my wounds now-a-days
There's salt sprinkled on the roadways, 
Testing the will of steel
Determination is fortified indeed.

My tears could burn the ocean
There's so much commotion,
Grounded amidst the turmoil
There's nowhere to hide.

Cautious in my approach
Dreams refuse to let me go,
When the flame of fortitude is high
This is when we really shine.
