"The one who falls and gets up, is stronger than the one who never fell."

As i see faces staring at me 

Talking in a loud tone

As if i can't hear them

As if they can't reach me

I hid the strength i owned up to

Observing the laughter on the side

While i dust a dress of tranquility

I grown very well into

Knowing that the only strength 

I ever could have 

Resided within my soul

Learning that falling was part 

Of all those rides

That i myself had always seemed eager to get into 

I dare to hide the smiles of a heart

In love with the idea of life

As the voices around stopped getting loud

They learnt they now could reach me

That behind my silent face

A stronger woman dared to live inside

All she ever needed was to learn

That those voices would never give up

That they would shout louder

For saving a life was more important

Than any day that goes by

i think when we are younger, that is when we are so afraid to fall, to make mistakes...we feel that it makes us vulnerable and we are afraid of that...but later in life we realize vulnerability is really a good thing...and falling provides the wisdom we need to grow old with strength of mind, heart and soul.
