How much does she have to survive
She hopes for a better life

Apple

Apple, apple, of my eye
Why did you have to go and die?
The worm survived, but no way will I
Now bake a lumbricus terrestris pie!

Prisioner

Fate locked me in a room
and took away from me
food
water
clothes
rest
but since it left me hope
I survived.

are only one in billions

Souls trapped in tears
rolling down from the eyes
will have survived
until before 
they have touched the ground
and fallen to pieces

Bad things happen,
trauma occurs,
resilience is what gets you through.

So bounce back,

True Beauty

The true beauty 
Of the butterfly lies not
In the iridescence of its wondrous wings
But in the sheer fact that it survived
Its extreme makeover.

On-The-Job Training

When he was young
  he survived on smidgens
from starving artists
  unemployed musicians

And that is why
  he's often said
He feeds the pigeons

Till the End of Every Night

He survived another night..
He, who thought has lost his life.
He told himself, he'll be alright..
As the time passed him by, till the end of every night.

One Slipper Has Survived

We still have one rose crystal slipper
eagerly presented to grandmother once upon a time
by a prince of a man, who left during World War II
never to return

The One Who Survived

The One Who Survived

Dumb drunk
when arrested
thought he’d hit just the tree.
Beneath his car lay my brother’s
body.

Broke

Here lies my wallet.
On my desk he sleeps.
His malnourished stomach’s
been empty for weeks.

No family survived him.
There is only me, 
With no way to pay off
his burial fee.

When the Bough Breaks

What's going on with Mike and Molly

They built their house in boughs of holly

But when Christmas arrived 

And no holly survived 

We called it Mike and Molly's folly

once innocent in springtime
