Crowning Glory

Santajah Douglass

The lights of the fields, they dance with delight,

As darkness falls and day turns to night.

They twinkle and shimmer, a spectacular sight,

Guiding me forward, igniting my fight.

 

For I have known moments of waiting and pain,

Heartache and longing that made my soul strain.

But amidst the challenges, the doubts and the fears,

I discovered a strength that wiped away tears.

 

In this journey of mine, they tried to say no,

Telling me I had one foot in the grave, you know.

But I cared not for their words, their skepticism,

For I knew my crown glory required optimism.

 

And so I wait, with patience and grace,

Embracing each trial, never losing my pace.

For greatness is earned, it does not come for free,

And risks are the path to my destiny.

 

I faced the haters, the bullies, the stalkers,

Those who doubted me, thinking I was a talker.

But they couldn't steal my moment, my pride,

For my crowning glory was always by my side.

 

I stride forward, despite those who jeer,

With determination that surpasses all fear.

For the most beautiful part of my story,

Is the strength within me, shining in all its glory.

 

The lights of the fields, they illuminate the way,

As I continue on, with courage every day.

The moments I've waited for, now within reach,

As I stand in front of a crowd that I beseech.

 

They're the people I hold dear, who believed,

In my dreams and ambitions, never deceived.

And as their eyes gaze upon me, full of love,

I transcend all doubt, like a soaring dove.

 

This is my crowning glory, my moment divine,

The culmination of efforts, of all I've designed.

The lights of the fields bathe me in their glow,

As my heart sings, aching, yet ready to bestow.

 

The nerves wrack my spirit, but I conquer them all,

For I'm here, in this moment, standing tall.

And I'll forever continue, sharing my story,

Highlighting the greatness in my journey.

 

For my crowning glory is not just a prize,

It's the perseverance that opens up the skies.

It's the triumph over obstacles, big and small,

Revealing the strength that resides in us all.

 

So, let the lights of the fields guide your way,

As you face your moments, endure and stay.

For your crowning glory awaits, like a sunbeam,

And it will forever shine as part of your dream.
