Never Win

By Gemini2012

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Do you see what people see?Do you know what people feel?Have you hurt,Like your prisoners hurt,How you treat them all,Like dirt,You hold their hopes,And dreams in your hand,Why can't you fight them,And be a man,But of course,You couldn't do that,Not when you have people,Who are stronger than bats,You can beat us down,You can hurt our pride,But you cannot take,The love we have insideYou hold us in your,Darkened heart,Hoping we won't,fall apart,You've hurt us once,But not again,In the end you'll,Never win Written November 3rd, 2001 © on Nov 03 2001 08:30 AM PST, Melinda Hatfield   18 • 0 • 1
