Keep Fighting

by Jump from Life   Apr 28, 2012


Please never give in,
please never give up.
I know that you're heart has turned to tin,
but is there anything I can do to lift your spirits up?

I know that you've been hurt,
I know that you just want to die,
but please don't spill your blood into the dirt
and watch as I begin to cry!

Gosh, I know that you can't take it,
I truly understand how you feel
but please don't make that deep slit
with that sharp blade of steel!

*This poem is dedicated to everyone who ever feels like they want to die. To people who think that they can't deal with the hurt and the loss. Please know that people care about you, that people love you, and that you ARE worth everything!!!!!!! Please, don't give in!~Especially dedicated to all of my friends and future friends!~*

    This really made my day, Allie. I'm glad you're back on track, and if you ever feel like you're losing ground, remember you have friends to give you a hand :)
    Now, the poem--
    "Please never give in,
    please never give up."
    ---I really like the 'please', it really shows that the persona is pleading that she doesn't want to see life wasted, and that she wants to help. Really nice.
    "I know that you're heart has turned to tin,
    but is there anything I can do to lift your
    spirits up?"
    I like the tin metaphor. Gives the piece a nice rhythm and imagery of the person you're talking to who has given up. But I also have a feeling that the person you're talking to is the person you were before..
    "I know that you've been hurt,
    I know that you just want to die,
    but please don't spill your blood into the
    dirt and watch as I begin to cry!"
    ---This truly shows that the persona cares and wouldn't want to see blood spilled in a very wrong manner.
    "Gosh, I know that you can't take it,
    I truly understand how you feel
    but please don't make that deep slit
    with that sharp blade of steel!"
    ---Really nice ending. I love this piece.
    Shows hope and gives inspiration to anyone and everyone who reads it. Great job! Keep writing and keep fighting :)
