Piece by Piece

Piece by piece
I fixed up my dream
My passion never ceased
As I built up my self-esteem

Day by day
My tower grew higher
From time to time, it'd sway
But it stayed and grew bolder

When it covered the sun
Everything got darker
This was supposed to be fun
But I learnt as I grew older

What it meant to be naive
What it meant to grow up
What it meant to believe
In miracles when you show up
At the door, determined
Triumphing over your fears
Critics and hypocrites dampened
Their frowns disappear

Piece by piece
You restore that dream
Relight the passion and carry on
Building your self-esteem

Day by day
Your tower grows stronger
From time to time, it sways
But you have an anchor

You learn to never give up
Chase after every silver lining
Because piece by piece
You know you'd be a better being.
