To Give Or Not To Give
Is giving up a crime?
Can one throw in the towel,
Or is it considered crossing the line?
I tried my best,
But my enemy was time
I give up,
But is it mine to give,
People behind me,
They all believe.
Hope regained
Strength rejuvenated
Stress annihilated
Support appreciated
back at it again,
This time with confidence
I can do it,
My false promises
Failed again,
Not again,
No pain no gain they say,
Do they feel my pain?
Standing and falling
From falling to crawling
Back to standing
Bruised but not wounded
An animal is worst when wounded
Am wounded
Am an animal
Stay back,
I don't give up
I attack,
For if we give up,
What would we be left with to give?
