A light ignited within burns
Swaying against the wind and squirms
Rooted in disbelief--it stands firm
Confident in its worth.

Contemplating the howlers and scathing stings
Redefining all boundaries the designators think
Hard--it may be though to fruition
Consistent hard work does get recognition.

The success we achieve on our merit
Goes a long way in establishing our credit
The quality of our work
Leaves the critics in a lurch. 

Our dreams don't expire
They are swept under the burdens of desires
Fighting, losing; and yet choosing
Our dreams invoke walking through fire.
