Hah!

I laugh!

I smile!

I dance in spite of you!

You forget,

I’m not alone.

I know that

You can’t win without me.

Fear, I spin upon your chest.

Shake and tremble all you will,

I dance still.

Jealousy, just give up on me.

I stomp in cheerful unity.

VICTORY!!

Pain, I know you have a claim,

But I will hug you ’til you bend my way.

I’m okay.

Fatigue, you just don’t get it.

I’m

Still

Moving.

Anger, rage if you will.

Hurt, betray, or annoy

I give with joy.

You can not make me not love you,

nor take what I freely give.

Life,

You just got the best of me.
