Ready to Rock

There was
a single moment
when
the thought
of another breath
held more pain
than my heart
could bare

when life
put on
her bitch boots
and kicked my arse
one time too many

but then
that moment ticked over
as another breath
sliced its way
into
my lungs
and I felt
the warrior within
stir�

it whispered �
�let�s dance�

though the tune
was unfamiliar
I would
soon
find my groove

and they, who danced in shadows
may have stomped
the naked flame
of love's beat
because I dared
to fall

but I also dared to wake up
on the other side
of unconscious,
ready to rock
just because
they'd hoped
I'd stay down...
