Our essence craves more each second
leaving us starved and coveted.
Our essence is more than a temptation that leaves us full,
it flourishes with courage
leaving lethargy behind
which brightens the room.
Our essence leaves a mark
impossible to be ignored.
Our essence shines like gold
and our core values will remain intact.
During the conflict, it remains undamaged.
Our essence is all that we have to
carry us through life and death.
Our essence is our spirit.
