    it's been a rather long while since I last wrote a piece of poetry. Today, I present before thee- "It Keeps On Going". You've got to agree that I suck at titles.

    This one is slightly complicated, and isn't as straight forward as it seems. ;) Whoever finds the actual meaning of it will receive a cookie. XD;; But yeah, the message conveyed is about the nature of life, which keeps going on no matter what happens.


    It Keeps On Going
    Last night I dreamt of the stars up high;
    A dream to last forever.
    Of fields and flowers and a butterfly;
    The happiness all together.

    I woke up to an appalling truth
    Of the harsh path ahead of me;
    I desire no pity; no ruth.
    Realisation dawns on me.

    I recall eyes brim with tears,
    That found no way down the cheeks;
    A sudden familiar soon appears,
    Soothing the somber squeaks.

    Tighten your straps,
    Ready your boots,
    Pick up your staff,
    Wake up, asleep!
    Life has no room for those who forgo;
    A bed of roses? No!

    Thank you for your time. (:
     
    This has such an encouraging mood to me.
    Great work.
    And don't worry to much about the title. It doesn't matter too much.

    Oh...and I suppose I get half of a cookie? :cer_smile:
