A cat can die eight deaths
and still get through another
people can have fight
but still love eachother

You can live through a plane crash
and still take the next flight
You can eat enough for two
and still want the chocolate that's in sight

A parent can be near death
and still get up to help their kid
somebody can come in last place
and still be proud of how they did

So why can't we get through
that one bad day we had
maybe it'd be better
and I wouldn't be so sad

I wonder why everything else can be fixed
and be how it's suppose to be
it's because nothing could ever hurt as bad
as when you put an end to you and me

If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything.

seemed simple the first read, deeper on the second. this it made me start to think about human instinct, human psychology, and basic human emotion. i'm weird, i know.

I can relate to this so well right now it's scary. Great job at expressing yourself. I especially love the end.
Thanks for sharing.

Megan, I'm just sitting here speechless, and I really don't know what to write.
I really liked this poem, a lot...you did express your feelings wonderfully and I think you did a great job.
I'm saving this in my library, hope you don't mind.

Wow . . . This was really good. It's beyond words, it's that good!
