I Will Fly

Sort of a self-reminder.

I must carry on
I must keep going.
But on the inside,
I don't feel the strength I'm showing.
Yes I know, the water keeps on flowing
and the wind keeps on blowing.
But now I am slowing.
I must keep my head up,
facing the sky,
instead of keeping it down,
and asking "why?"
I must always try,
then when I succeed
is when I will shine,
I will fly.

[HereWithoutYou<3]

Awesome, I like it. I am at your age right now, and it's really good.

[Poeticpiers]

I like the theme very much Your rhyming is pretty good. But you need to study meter. DAmn good effort for twelve. The best poems tend to come suddenly

[NoneOfYourBusiness akaK..]

it is a truly inspirational/motivational poetic~ almost like a personal seed mantra to keep oneself above the waters ~ walking forward with confidence within themseves~ well done~
