Against the Tide

Against the tide, against the waves.

I push against them, past all the bad days.

I can not give up, or I will drown.

Got to keep moving, or I will go down.

It's a constant struggle, it's a constant war.

If life weren't difficult, what would life be for?

Whether I know it or not, our life has a reason.

So I must keep going, I must not run.

I do affect people, even if I do not know.

A reason to keep going, yes this is so.

So I'll keep moving, I'll keep my stride.

Against the waves, against the tide.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Written in 2003. I took this title from a song I made. This poem is to help anyone through stressful times, everyone has them. I know I do right now.
