Forging ahead…..

In the depths of shadows, where dreams are cast,
A soul perseveres, though the die is cast.
Through tears unseen, and a heart that aches,
A spirit endures, no matter what it takes.

In the silence of night, when all is still,
The weight of the world, a heavy bill.
Yet a spark remains, a flicker of light,
Guiding the way through the darkest night.

With each passing day, a mountain to climb,
Yet a smile remains, a beacon, a sign.
Of a heart that's strong, a will that's true,
A resolve unbroken, through and through.

No accolades sought, no praises sung,
Just a quiet resolve, a song unsung.
For duty calls, and the path is clear,
To serve with honor, without fear.

In the face of adversity, a steadfast soul,
Keeping the flame alive, a noble goal.
For in the heart of sadness, a light does shine,
A testament to resilience, a life divine.
