I’M FIGHTING FOR LIFE

I’M FIGHTING FOR LIFE

They say that I'm fighting in this unbeatable fight

But I'm fighting for life

 I know that tomorrow is not a promise

And I'm thinking that maybe my mission might not get accomplished

 Maybe it's from all the pain I see

 All the misery

And I try to make sense of it all

Why can't I make sense of it at all?

The uncertainties about it

I have my own reasons to doubt it

I'm out there hoping for change

You can find me standing in the darkness trying to explain And if I have to die crying

Let them know that I didn't go easy, I died trying

To make this a better place to grow

I'm just trying to give back everything that I know

 Because I once stood in the corner soul searching

 I once stared death in the eye with my soul hurting

 And if I could just give it all back now

Get them all back on track somehow

 Some would say that I'm fighting in this unbeatable fight But, I'm fighting for life!

Nice, I would love to hear this performed in a poetry slam. This has a feeling of determination and competence without sounding egotistic. I love it

Thank you for your comments. Most of my poems are written about people that I have met in my life. I close my eyes and try to become who I am writing about in order to capture what a person is feeling. I write "real life" poetry with hope to motivate and inspire others.
