Cheptoo

In the quiet of the night, Cheptoo sits alone,

Listening to the whispers, her inner voice's tone.

"They will ignore you," it softly sighs,

A truth that cuts through the silence, never lies.

Her heart echoes the words, a bittersweet refrain,

As she recalls moments of dismissal and disdain.

Yet she carries on, strong and true,

For she knows deep inside, her worth shines through.

Through valleys of doubt, she walks with grace,

Her spirit unyielding, in every embrace.

For though they may overlook her light,

She knows her worth, shining bright.

So let them ignore, until they're in need,

For Cheptoo's strength is in her own creed.

She listens to the voice within her core,

Guiding her steps, forever more.
