Strive

by Etcertera3

Hello, Hello

you laying there on the ground

get up, 

you laying there spirit crushed

stand up,

don't let them defeat you

Im sorry Im not around to listen to what you have to say

But that doesn't justify you giving up

Hello? Hello?

I know you hear me

yet you continue to lay

Dont quit, Strive.
