I scull these endless miles, no sleep
To hide the pain that’s hidden deep
With every breath inhaled, I ache
And wonder how much more I’ll take
Before, at last, my final bow
Will release my soul, which cries, but now
I will forge my way, to alleviate this mood
Lest I spend my life, in a constant brood
For this pain doesn’t have control over me
I am the victor, I will set myself free
Row across the river, with courage and fortitude
Where adversity will never, again, intrude
