Don’t Quit

Consider this a response to the blogs that I’ve read. This poem might not have great poetical elements but it was given to me by one of those amazing people that I mentioned in the previous blog. It helped him, and it helped me. Now I’m just passing the love along.

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will

When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill

When the funds are low, and the debts are high

And you want to smile, but you have to sign

When care is pressing you down a bit

Rest if you must, but don’t you quit

Life is strange, with its twists and turns

As everyone of us sometimes learns

And many a failure turns about

When they might have won, had they stuck it out

Don’t give up, though the pace seems slow

You might succeed with another blow

Often the goal is nearer than

It seems to a fain and faltering man

Often the struggler has given up

When they might have captured the Victor’s Cup

And they learned too late when the night slipped down

How close they were to the Golden Crown

Success is failure turned inside out

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt

And you never can tell how close you are

It may be near when it seems afar

So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit

It’s when things seem worse, that you mustn’t quit!
