Resilience Poem by Hanan Muzafar

With might and mind,
Take stand, even if it scares,
for peace, doesn't come free;
Look and watch,
when invisible through streets,
for there're ways and routes;
As there's also belief.

Wicked they play, and deceit they display,
what you seek, it's not in them;
It's here,
In breath, and in beat,
through veins, out of seeds:
Move covert, while impact overt,
gather and mend, crude into iron.

Time, rival or fellow;
choose if it's
purpose and freedom,
What's in hand, don't keep it empty,
for there's storm, that holds tide,
Through valleys,
for cause, resilient;
Hard devoid, radical corrosive,
broken in need:
A fight,
that never wants to end,
but you don't give up.
