Leave Me to Fight for Us...Alone
Here we stand
Up upon this hill,
Fighting, you and me,
Fighting for us, for each other to remain together.
Staring out on the valley below
Filled with treachery and hardship
Pain and anguish
But you turn away and run,
Run from the problems that face you
Simply because it’s too tough,
You damn cowardice BITCH!!!
You leave me to fight alone,
To push through our troubles and fight for us!
Watching me take the blows,
Watching as I’m torn up, ripped apart
As I bleed and break…
And still you run when instead you could be fighting by my side, to save us.
But I fight alone, continuing to take the hits, make the shots and push through the pain.
And you’ve given up, on us, on me, on everything I’m still trying to fight for…
But I’ll keep going until I fall,
And you won’t be there to pick me up,
So I’ll get up, wipe the blood from my face,
Dust myself off, grit my teeth and tend my wounds.
You may have given up this time,
You may have been able to run away, for now
But that road will still be waiting in the end
And sooner or later you’ll have to fight your way through it too.
You could have done it with me,
But you gave up and ran
Now you may have to do it alone.
I will push through and I will come out in the end,
With or without you…

i really like this poem. And sooner or later you’ll have to fight your way through it too. then Now you may have to do it alone.
I will push through and I will come out in the end,
With or without you… these lines are really strong. I enjoy the prose that show how determined you are to fight through to the end . . . until you collapse. awesome!
