[bodytext] => Do or Die
Born in poverty Never given a chance Dreamt of being famous Put the world in a trance Stepped on and pushed around Driving his self-esteem into the ground Brought himself up, only to fall His life held up, pressed against a wall Like a bird without wings to fly Do or Die Hopes and desires taken away Flew out the window in half a day Watched them fly out Tears dampened his eyes The silence of the night was filled with his cries Flowing and flowing for days and days after Depressing thoughts constant, little or no laughter His brief smiles part of a big lie Do or Die Laying in bed, looking at the ceiling No emotion can express what he's feeling His sorrow stopped the flowing of blood His body lay lifeless, face in the mud Life has been wasted Defeat has been tasted Identity erased Still for some reason, he thinks he's alive Even though his reasons are in a nose dive Success was doubted Visions were clouded Motivation from critics saves him from his demise Proving them wrong is his ultimate prize So he pushes on with a gleam in his eye Do or Die [comments] => 4 [counter] => 169 [topic] => 21 [informant] => thebirdman [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
