Array ( [sid] => 74680 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Never Give In [time] => 2004-12-06 20:55:57 [hometext] => * A rather short poem about abuse. I was thinking of making it longer but thought that would detract from the overall message. Anyway this poem is dedicated to my buddy Jesey * [bodytext] => Never give into that hate
Stand strong amidst the weakness
Expunge all negative thoughts
Dry those tears (and those cuts)
Live up to and beyond those lies
Lift your head up
And stare depression in the face
Stand up to your pain
Puff your chest with pride
And never let this person
Get his away
Your pain is his gain
Take back those years you lost
No longer hide amongst the shadows
And wipe away the tears that glisten [comments] => 16 [counter] => 180 [topic] => 65 [informant] => bobotheclown [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 20 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => toughstuff )
Never Give In

Never give into that hate

Live up to and beyond those lies

And never let this person
Get his away
Your pain is his gain
Take back those years you lost
No longer hide amongst the shadows
And wipe away the tears that glisten

Wow...
Joel this was a very very good poem... It may be short, but it gets the point acorss very clearly... you need to stand up to what/who's hurting you, if you dont, it may never stop
keep up the great work!

*hugs*
