Survive some more [short poem]



Beneath the smile,
Lays a wounded soul,
Scars many, a lasting pain,
One more blow, I couldn’t care
Survived so far, will survive some more!

~Sam

P.S: This is my first attempt at a progressive poem- 3 words to 7 words.

first attempt..is quite good :)
I am not very good at writing poems..so..I don't even try much..and that's why..when I come across something which is short, sweet and says it all..I just can't help but admire it. :)

Keep it coming!

It's absolutely true and this is what I keep on telling myself when life is harsh. Beautifully penned Sam...:)

Sameera, I think this was one of your best. I liked that you used simpler words, the progressive style is amazing and thus the ending is so much stronger :)

Very well done!

Cheers

Interesting, "progressive poem" is new to me! Makes a stronger impact on the reader I guess, as it builds up to the end.
