I Do not Fall

Mindy Compton, 13, US

The world may crumble beneath my feet
But I do not fall
It may seem like I have come to defeat
But I do not fall
I may stumble along to find my way
But I do not fall
I may not survive every day
But I do not fall
The sun may never come up
But I do not fall
Grace may not over flow my cup
But I do not fall
The world can ignore me
But I will not fall
The bright light of the sun, I will never see
But I will not fall
I will not land on both my knees
No, I refuse to fall
My steady pace will never cease
No, I refuse to fall
I do not fall.
