Forged By Fire

Trembling! My hands shake when I look up 

To see the scorn on their faces

I fold a punch to hide my distress 

My heart ache when I know nothing will change 

Fear cripple my entire being and 

Hopelessness became my companion 

In the furnace of life, Pain dive into my heart 

It heats up my blood and travels through my vein 

I'm molded by what I fear most - Hatred from loved ones 

Just like gold tested through fire to shine 

I have learned to love myself and my scar
