Everybody Wants You.

by ElegantlyWasted   Sep 25, 2005


*Take a little walk alone,
Breathe in the icy air,
Cleanse those few impurities,
That send you into despair.*

*Walk a mile if that'll help,
Take all the time you need,
Cry till your heart's content,
With all that made you bleed.*

*Tired shoes are what you wear,
Maybe eyes stained black and blue,
But deep inside that hardened heart,
There's something breaking through.*

*All you have to do, Darling,
Is hold on like you've never before,
Take the rope from around your neck,
And use it to get off the floor.*

*Stop holding on to things,
You think you need to live,
Stand up and tell the world,
You've got all and more to give.*

*And that knife you hold so close,
Can only be seen as weak,
For many out there will help you,
If happiness is what you seek.*

*So take my advice and walk,
Oh, Walk till you see clear,
Because many are willing and ready,
If only you'd see them there.*

"If you don't have the strength,
To stop feeling the way you do,
Then there's only one person to blame,
And that person - Is you."

-This doesn't have much direction but the concept of this is that no matter how hard things are there is ALWAYS another way. Regardless of the circumstances. I wrote this poem mainly for myself and those who think that giving up is the best option. Because; It isn't. Either you have the will power or you don't-

    Hey. I was hoping someone would make a poem with this message. Giving up is not the answer, and being able to put it into a poem like that was quite impressive. I admire your work, and have no complaints as to anything you write really. I hope you keep writing and don't change a thing about it.
