The Resilience of a Warrior Conquering Adversity
Poem by Levi Sap Nei Thang
They said, Let’s damage her name,
They said, Let’s make her bankrupt,
They said, Let’s destroy her reputation,
But little did they know,
My spirit would not break,
For within my beat a heart,
Resilient, fierce, and awake.
I may have stumbled,
But I’ll rise from the fall,
Stronger than ever,
Defiant, standing tall.
A woman of fire,
With a burning desire,
To prove them all wrong,
To read my own poem.
So let them speak ill,
Let them spew hate,
For their words hold no power,
In the face of her fate.
I’m a warrior of words,
A phoenix in flight,
And with each obstacle,
I’ll shine even more brightly.
For in the depths of my soul,
A spark ignites the flame,
And I’ll conquer the world,
In spite of their aim.
