This was a good poem...i feel the exact same way. I love the stone line...agreed...hard to get blood from something that is already dead.

Wow thats really good
i think you should read mine because some of them would probabli relate to you as this one relates to me

This was great. I believe my favorite lines were these......

The world sees pain and thinks of weak,
But my strength is all I own,
It shall never be surrendered,
No blood comes from a stone.

So true these lines, our strength is all we really own to never be surrendered. Such a wonderful write.
