Survival Poem by Ricky G.

I'll Rise

I have been acquainted with hurt,

But for so long that’s been a little dirt,

And I know I’ll rise.

I have been in broken homes,

Now that’s just my dead bones.

I used to be troubled,

So I knocked it down to old rubble,

Now I know I’ll rise.

I have seen death and new life,

I’m glad for my life,

But that’s my stress as I rise.

Survival Poem by Christian

Overcome
Overcome I will which you may not,

we all have choices right or wrong,

I will learn from my mistakes

as long as I choose to.

When I get down or upset

I think of my motivation,

it pushes me to do right from wrong

motivation is key, you all will see.

There will always be struggles

and things to overcome, 

there will be people that will

help you fall, but succeed

I will because I choose to.

So overcome I will and help anyone

do the same, but if you choose to not,

you will be the only person to blame.
