Array ( [sid] => 81030 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I won't let them [time] => 2005-01-22 18:39:01 [hometext] => Let me just say that if anyone out there thinks that they are better just beacuse of their race, gender, social status..etc their wrong...they hurt alot of people..it's not fair...This one is for all those who have been discriminated... [bodytext] => I won't let them
They won't see me fall
I won't let them
The heck with them all
I won't let them
Bring me down
I gotta be strong
I'll show them
How much i"ve grown
I'll show them their wrong
I won't let them
Tear my hopes and dreams
Haven't they taken enough
I won't scream
It's been rough,
But i'll be fine
They won't take what's mine
I won't let them
Break me down
I'll find the crown
They won't see me frown
I won't let them
Step me down
I won't be their clown
They won't see me drown
I won't let them
I refuse
I won't let them
Take me down

Good for you. Keep it up.

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. ©
