Poem Title:
Poem
it seems like no matter where I go I always get a fight no matter how nice I am people always try to get me down I always seem to pull through and put a smile on my face but people always try to turn it the other way into a frown my mother always told me don't cry over spill milk in the end because sometimes what has happened can never ever be changed when people knew me in the past I will admit that I had a lot of faults but I’m happy to stand here now because my life has now been rearranged so I salute all the persons that stood there and said that I wouldn't make it I am glad I am strong so I could pull through because I almost believed all my life people kept feeding me with negative things over and over again now they can’t stop me again because I am successful and I feel relieved they managed to destroy past relationships as also a lot of friendships however I stood firm and focused so they couldn't damage my integrity I wondered what I did to make people want to see me fail so much but I realize all the gossips and the lies they told made me into a celebrity they never saw success headed my way I was told I would always fail I’m glad I wasn't stupid to listen and got up and decided I would try before I use to hide from them because I thought their words were true now wherever I do see them in the streets I always make sure I say hi people remember you determine your future not the words of others so I say believe in yourself no matter what you will always have haters but mommy always said you want good then your nose got to run so I don't let them demoralize me all I do is use them as my motivators I promised myself I would never allow anyone to get the best of me I won’t allow them to get me upset even if they say something derogative ill just continue to work until I reach my goals that I have set in my life and I won’t let anyone derail me from that, that’s my prerogative BY: Marlon A. Malcolm
