Live On - A Poem · 6:21pm May 27th, 2016
Live On
A man looked to me and said;
“All your fame is in your head,
The world will forget you when you’re gone.”
But I smiled at him, instead;
Turned around and looked ahead,
Because through it all, I will live on.
A woman looked at me with shame.
The world within my soul to blame.
With my hubris I let hatred spawn.
But through it all, I stood tall;
Never surrender, never fall.
I showed I was nobody’s pawn.
