Standing

Standing

A Poem by Marlena

When these endless days catch up to you
please, just understand
some things you can't control
no matter what you try to do

and it's gonna be hard but...

See, this sun shines bright behind each cloud

even if it rains sometimes, even if it's grey

these roses in the street- they grow
and they grow for you, so be proud.

 

You've got storms over your head

I've seen them in my sleep

(nightmares or dreams, they're all the same)

you've got hurt in your heart

but all it takes is a little light to heal it, you'll see.

 

Call this what you will,

but I've got something to say, so listen up.

We've all been hurt, we've all got something tearing us down

and it isn't always just what happened that matters

but that we made it through in the end.

 

I'm still standing,

so tell me,

am I standing alone?

This poem is weird xD Butbutbut--- I like it.
Hell, I spent all day on this, so it BETTER get some reviews (feedback is nice, people).
Enjoy~ and take what you will from it, but it's for someone in particular :)

"Who's gonna fight for the weak? Who's gonna make 'em believe? I've got a hero (I've got a hero) livin' in me. I'm gonna fight for what's right, today I'm speaking my mind, and if it kills me tonight I will be ready to die. A hero's not afraid to give his life, a hero's gonna save me just in time." ~Skillet, Hero
