Stop

Some may beg and some may plead.
Others stand tall and say,
while I may some days just pray,
upon my knees,
and still believe,
I won't
STOP.

Some give with their all,
devoted to their cause, 
triumph, and still sigh, 
with tears in their eyes,
wondering why,
they just won't,
STOP.

Wish as others may do,
dare to believe their truths,
overwhelmed and consumed,
is about all we can do,
until they,
some way,
STOP.

Yet never deny,
your own reasons why,
your on self worth,
taking upon this search,
on this journey,
that one day,
someday,
soon, 
might STOP!
