Get A Leg Up Poems | Examples


List of Member Poems

Face It

I am a creator
Not another hater
Trying to improve, for a now and later

I am not the Alpha
Nor the Omega
I’m still trying, just to get a leg up

I am not one to fear
A thought that the end is near
For I will still be here

There may be something I’m searching for
Somewhere deep, back of the mind
But if I ever do find
The one thing that is mine
I will protect it, let no one near it
It is mine, I will never let go
Embrace it
Don’t change it
