though the night is long

and the journey is longer

i was told to keep on going

i was told to keep on going

when the road is uncertain

and my heart is far from certain

i was told to keep on going

i was told to keep on going

no matter what's in my way

i cannot escape life's fray

i was told to keep on going

i was told to keep on going

to give up isn't an option

failure has no celebration

i was told to keep on going

i was told to keep on going

forward march into tomorrow

anything else will just cause sorrow

i was told to keep on going

i was told to keep on going

inspirational

About the Creator

poetryinwaiting

I love all things writing...though I am particularly biased towards good, vulnerable poetry. I love pouring my heart on a page with every piece I write. Life is for expressing, not containing.
