Stand firm

MVJ Simon October 20, 2007

Tags:

When the battle rages within
between ethics and greed
Don't ever give in
And give up what you value most

Stand firm

When you feel so down
About the way you are treated
Unfair and unjust
Don't give up, just bide your time

Stand firm

When life sucks the best out of you
And you get
nothing in return
Don't reciprocate the same way
Just keep doing what you love

Stand firm

When faced with death
Laugh at it's face
You know you've given your best
And that's what you've left behind

Stand firm

Life will go on
And your spirit will live on
Inspiring the ones to come
By the way you lived and died
A Poem by M V J Simon
