I will win

by Nathan3259

You hit me hard

You played your cards

You broke a glass

And caught the shards

you broke my heart

tore it apart

You left me here

Nowhere to start

So the story goes

and no one knows

how I fade to dust

Like a forgotten rose

But I won’t give in

Brush off my skin

Stand up and fight

Until I win

You made me strong

When days were long

You thought I broke

But you were wrong

I’m back to fight

in the frail moonlight

and I will win

In the day or night

Something wrong with this poem?

I'm a Grad student now studying Biochemistry and Biophysics (not sure how I got there). I guess I've been using this site for nearly 8 years now though sometimes I went years without writing much of anything. I write what I feel and I write what I need to let go of. Sometimes I write about a dream or a nightmare I had, If I can tell the difference. I fell in love for poetry in high school and continued to write in college. I hope to publish a book someday as well (leave a comment if a poem speaks to you). P.S. My Instagram is @CottonCandyPoems
