Becoming Tough
~ By Sue ~

Again today, I thought of you
And all the things we use to do
There were some happy times
That have all been left behind

Sometimes I think back to then
The time when our life did begin
There was so much love we shared
It wasn't hard to see you cared

I remember the promises you made
Those memories now slowly fade
The good times did not last too long
And I sensed I had to be strong

Your words of love just did not last
Those emotions seemed to have passed
Since I gave in and left you that day
I have managed to make it some way

Right now it is a struggle for me
But I will eventually make it you see
For I am not one to give up
All it does is just make me more tough

Sue,

Very, very positive and uplifting in spite of the sad and good memories.
This should encourage anyone with similar circumstances. Wonderful write!

you've got determination, and a positive attitude, you'll make it!
This, being 15, made me look deeper into any love I might think I have. And reminds me to be aware. Great poem

Always, Alyssa
