Down For The Count By MEH3 1....2....3 That was a devastating blow 4....5....6 He is beat up, defeated it is OVER! 7....8....9 Hold on What do we have here? Is he getting back on his feet! Ooh my God It is a miracle After that one he looked like he was down for the count Just when I thought it was over and felt I was defeated He got me back on my feet I took blows from my head to my toes been shook, shaken and beaten When they said "Down he goes" They thought I was done Little did they know He had a plan for his son They said..."stay down" "Don’t get up" "This is not for you" "Just let it go" He said NO!!! I got you, I will fight your battles until the end So get up and get back in I will carry you to a win A victory, a champion you will never give in But I was thinking "I cannot" "I give up" "he wins" He said, looked at me are you doubting me again? I never said it would be easy You have to stick in there until the end! You thought it was over But I have a friend Who is above all those Who counted me out You thought I was done But it is was not in His plan He said do not worry about it and gave me a sneak peek at His hand Looking forward I got excited and jumped to my feet They said he is crazy Chopped liver Done, Complete But as I caught my second wind I thought well let the fight begin I am ready, yeah ready to win I have no worries, no doubts so let's get it in Because now I have the faith that He will be by my side That He holds my hand He carried me on His back Fought that fight and of course He got that win Even in defeat He got me back on my feet I will never be down for the count Until that day we meet Even then it would not be the end Because I have eternal life When you thought it was over He extended His hand picked me up and gave me another chance He knew I was a sinner but He showed me the true definition of a friend He told me He will be there until the end Even though He knows I will sin again He said He will not depart me So I got up being determined to never give up Understanding that I am not down for the count I am just being patient until then #ItzMeThePoet
