portrait of Ron Whitehead by Joey Feldman

I walk on

I will not bow down
I walk on

I refuse
I walk on

I never give up
I walk on

I face and embrace and learn from my fears and my demons
I walk on

I face and embrace and learn from my failures and my deaths
I walk on

No matter how many times I fall I find ways to get back up
I walk on

Today is a good day to fail and to die
Today is a good day to win and to live again
Today is a good day to walk on

I forever overcome defeat
I forever rise and stand tall and lean into the howling wind
I forever choose the warrior’s determined path of peace and love
I walk on

Ron Whitehead
