What Doesn’t Kill Posted on April 20, 2017February 21, 2021 by MoveOverOptimist Posted in poetryTagged difficulties, endurance, faith, life, poem, poetry They say what doesn’t kill you Provides you a stronger mind, But I really am deeply disgusted With getting in too many binds. I just want to not have to struggle– Magnetize victory my way! I yearn for the joys of tomorrow, But I attempt to be present today. I’m finished with learning the hard way! I wish when I cry out I’m heard! I know what it’s like to be grateful– So, why am I being deferred? I attempt to understand others– I feel like I empathize well. So, why do I keep falling farther And deeper into my own hell? Yet, something inside keeps me going– The small voice of sanity rings, And faith in a brighter forthcoming Leaves me soaring on endurance’s wings. Share this:TwitterFacebookLike this:Like Loading...
