Rock Bottom by AllNaijaBlogger(m): 7:45am On Aug 12, 2015
Like autumn leaves I fall
I fall into a deep chasm
A deep chasm of despair
In despair, I bawl

I am alive but not living
Not living but existing
Existing but not progressing
Not progressing but still fighting

It’s deep and dark in the abyss
In the abyss, everything’s amiss
But chaos is not a pit
It is a ladder for true grit.

I will rise
And rise I shall, to my feet
And rise I shall, to the challenge
For death is my only limit

"The strength of a man is not determined by how many times he fall, but by how many times he rises up each time he falls". -Obafemi Awolowo.
