The Voice of Every Step

by Monica93   Jul 9, 2009


Keep it up, don't stop now
With every last tear take a step forward
Leaving behind the mess you made
Don't worry someone else will clean it up
Please, please don't look back
Just move on through the darkness with the shuffle of your feet

That's it. Keep it up, don't stop now
Hurry while that ever building guilt pushes you more
Keep it up, keep it up your almost there
Just a few more steps down the path of wrong
That was the last nail on your coffin
Your old life no longer matters, thats it keep moving
No, no don't look back. Thats it keep it up, don't stop now

While your mind is clouded and judgment obscure just keep moving
Please don't try and think, just keep your pace and only look straight on
Thats it your almost there, yes yes you've got it now.
Thats it leave it all behind.
It doesn't matter, not anymore. Thats it thats it your so close now.
--------------------------

I'm not sure what to make of this mess. But please tell me what you think.

    I have to agree with the person on top it does seem like it would be an Emenim song.

    But respectfully my heart stopped as I got through the 5th line. It made my adrenaline rush so fast I had to go do some push ups to calm down.
    It truly is a great poem. It sucks you in with every line. (not tryin to be funny, it actually sucks you in)

    Nice work!

    My heart actually started pounding in anticipation waiting for what happened at the end of the poem.. but then nothing happened. >< Maybe you could.. make something happen? o.O I don't know. I know you don't really know what to make of it. I have poems like that too. lol Isn't it fun to talk to yourself? Well at least that's what I though you were doing. Telling yourself to just keep moving. <.< Anyways.. I loved it.

    Great jobb.

    Hey i think your good with what you have done but i cant help wonder how it would be as more of a rap style lyric if you know what i mean? think the words are amazing but can imagine it more as an eminem song so sort of shorter layout like this....

    Keep it up, (yeah)
    don't stop now
    With every last tear
    take a step forward (yeah)
    Leaving behind the mess
    The mess you made (yeah )
    Don't worry ( no dont worry)
    someone else will clean it up
    Please,
    please don't look back
    Just move on
    through the darkness (darkness)
    with the shuffle of your feet (just move on )

    anyway that is just my thought. think if you repeat the more powerful lines words it adds affect to the meaning and message that stands out.

    but great job well done xxx
