Don't give up

by XxxWordsOfWisdomxxX   Mar 18, 2012


Smile love,
It's okay.
Tomorrow will be,
Another day.

I know your hurt,
I know your pain.
I know that life,
Can drive you insane.

I know the feel,
Of a razor held to skin.
I know the taste,
Of a regretful sin.

I know,
About being lost.
I know the feeling,
I know the cost.

I know,
How it is to be alone.
I know what it's like,
Always on your own.

To be bullied,
And put down.
Slipping under,
Pushed around.

To give up,
Have no hope.
No safety net,
Or rope.

To be dropped,
The first fall.
In a world so big,
To feel small.

To find no light,
When it's so dark.
For a hit,
To leave it's mark.

To be pulled under,
Have no air.
Reaching for hands,
That are not there.

To feel numb,
Going blind.
Hatred filling,
A heart so kind.

To hang your head low,
With eyes so dim.
Willing to die,
On the simpilest wim.

To be empty,
Hollowed out.
Unheard,
In your shout.

You are not alone.
Others stand to.
If you'd only look,
You'll see others like you.

Don't give up,
Find the easy way to go.
So many things you'll miss,
Memories you'll never know.

Life is a mess,
A cruel thing, I agree.
But I promise one day,
Things get better, you'll see.

    Your poem shined with such beauty and love. You don't know how much I enjoyed your writing!

    I love the easy-flowying rhymes and the short stanzas and simple words you used to get a monumental message across.

    The ending made me smile, we always have to remember to not give up because who knows what we will miss?

    A heartwarming piece, you address so much heartache and pain that a lot of people can easily relate to, yet you bring the sunshine out at the beginning and in the end.

    Made me definitely smile!
    Keep it up-
