Retribution Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 [SIZE=1]Here's another poem. It was exactly how I was feeling, so I can't really entertain crit like "You're trying too hard to be deep." It flowed from the pen. Nothing else. [b]All the Adversity[/b] "Cause sometimes you feel tired, feel weak, and when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up. But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength and just pull that shit out of you and get that motivation to not give up and not be a quitter, no matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse." ~Eminem Listen to my tears spilling through this pen Transforming my soul to never get conquered again Crying for the courage to look grim death in the eye To be strong enough to shoulder my burden inside To have the will to kill my inner-demon tonight And my tears are flowing tonight so: I welcome adversity to cross my path Cause it'll get its infastructure collapsed Raging wrath leaves its neck severed and snapped Dismantle shadows of doubts, so they never attack I was clever but cracked -- And my cowardice was a tether severed in the weather of black-ness. Every final round was only a practice My useless trump was a null-and-void tactic Desparation was felt like kids in burning attics -- Too much reality I wasn't good enough, wasn't worth it Damaged merchandise wrapped up in a tourniquet Had to pick up my pieces Had to fight to the top Had to pray to a Jesus Iron out my soul in a knot.[/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
