And I will overcome,
The pain that overwhelms me,
The loss that tries to break me,
The suffering around me.

And I will overcome,
The thought of her,
The aching to be with her,
My love for her.

And I will overcome,
The guilt of living,
The torture of being,
The hurt of seeing.

And I will overcome,
The fear of everyday,
The grief of each day,
The face of today.

And I will be,
What is left of me.

This piece is about a person in the Holocaust and their everyday struggles, what they must overcome. I was inspired to write this after visiting the Museum of Tolerance in New York City.
