Against

In a tiny rowboat she drifts alone

Gentle waves whisper but they chill to the bone

With each stroke of the oar she fights the strong tide

Against life's fierce currents she will not hide

Row on row on through the stormy night

Hope is the beacon her heart is the light

Stars up above they guide her way true

In the darkest waters she finds strength anew

With each challenge faced her spirit grows bold

In her fragile vessel a story unfolds
