I AM A FIGHTER

by Gayle McMillan   Aug 6, 2015


I came into this world
Kicking, screaming
I`m a fighter
Not a quitter
I will not give up
You ask me, Why?
I`ve come to live
Not simply die
To be and do my very best
Meet every challenge
Face every test
I won`t give up, no never
I won`t go softly, no not ever
Discouragement
Breathes down my back
And wages yet another attack
I will not give in
I will not cry
I do not wish
To simply die
I was born for such a time as this
You try to take me out
But once again, you miss
My strength was forged
In the furnace of afflictions
I will stand and fight
For my convictions
I will not give up
You ask me, Why?
Kicking, screaming
I`ve come to fight
Not lie down and die
