Sometimes I feel
like giving up
that no one cares
if I am here
or I am there.
Sometimes I feel
I should stop trying
why bother,
no one is listening.
Sometimes I feel
like trying.
I feel like trying
again and again
and again.
Sometimes I feel
like if I keep trying
you’ll start listening,
you’ll start caring.
And sometimes I feel
that if you are listening
and starting to care
that it really does matter
if I am here or if I am there.
So I plod along day after day
hoping that soon it will be
the day.
The day when I not only feel,
but the day when
I know:
I make a difference.
I matter.
That is the day
that I will
define myself
with the word:
Success.

I am a total beginner-beginner at poetry and created Memeeโs Poetry Parties in an attempt to challenge myself (or more accurately force myself to be challenged) at this form of writing. It does not come easily to me at all. If you enjoy poetry and want to give a poke at it I encourage you to join my monthly poetry party, whether youโre brand new to poetry and writing or a veteran writer we all learn from and appreciate one another. It is my hope that we will all find inspiration and encouragement, and make lasting friendships while growing our writing skills and our blogs.
So if you liked my poem I hope youโll consider joining this monthโs linky party: Success Stories.
