nevertheless

the wind at her back

a storm in her sails

half-drowning she presses on

the blood on his lips

a bruise on his chest

he swings a desperate fist

time running out

the doctor's grim word

yet the lungs keep filling with air

declined yet again

the wallet is bare

but hope for provision comes

leg crushed beneath

fire everywhere

and still he crawls along


nevertheless

all hope seems lost

something is rising strong

nevertheless

lift up your eyes

the day is about to dawn

nevertheless

against all odds

tomorrow becomes today
