When The World

Feeling rebellious??

When the world sees fit to turn its back

Just forget it and keep on living

When the world seems all blight and scorn

Be kind and not unforgiving

Cuz’ in this world we’re all fighting

Some singing, some acting, and some writing

We all have our ways to cope with it

Life, the name we give this pile of s**t

When the world turns to look away

Stare straight towards the horizon

When the world gives up

Find something to keep your eyes on

Cuz’ in this world we all struggle

With all the burdens we have to juggle

But when we want to give up, we cannot

Because this life is all we got

When the world thinks you’re dead

In truth your just resting your head

When the world thinks you’re finally done

Show it you’re just getting started instead

Cuz’ it always seems like a race to the grave

Like death is the only thing we crave

So when the world is ending, remember

YOU CAN NEVER SURRENDER

Yeah, when the world gives up on us we need to not give up on ourselves! Good job!

This is a very lyrical piece. It flows really nicely. The wording is great too. My favorite part of this poem was the line "When the world gives up/Find something to keep your eyes on." Really great write. Thanks for sharing! All the best.

You write great. I also love how you're one of those people who aren't afraid to explore with changing around the structure of your font and playing around with it's format. I find it flows nicer this way and really sticks with people more.
