Poetry

I won’t

Go down easily

I won’t let you take me out of the race so soon.

I will finish this time around.

Even if I’m so weak at the end.

I won’t stop until I know this battle is over and I won.

Because I believed in myself and didn’t wait for your support.

I’m done playing along when things are so unbalanced.

I know I deserve so much more than the crumbs you throw me now and then.
