Against the Odds

This poem is about everything in life that keeps us from trying anything.

I am the rock in your sound place.
I am the many scars.
I am the rejected
I am the storm
I am the hasting whisper
I am the sorrows tear
I am the hearts broken
I am the disease feared
I am the all American
I am our own fallen man
I am your children’s nightmare
I am your dreams knocked down
I am your stepping stone marked in blood sweat and tears
I am the odds against you
Now mound up with no fear
