A Poet's Creed

I don't want to cry 
Tears of pain without answers to questions asked like why? 
Tears flowing like a Purple Rain, 
Keeping my mind in check and not insane, 
Dreaming dreams like floating on clouds, 
Thinking, thinking out loud 
Although it doesn't seem that way at all 
But I need a hand when I do fall 
Fall down, fall down, fall down 
Feeling like I'm in a pool about to drown 
But I remember the song that "we fall down but yet we get up" 
I gotta reach life's silver cup 
Because I am a winner!!!
