Survival Poem-Nikolaus

I’ll Try!

I have a struggle in side.

Everyday I try 

People fight yet I try                                                                                          

I’ve overcome challenges

And still I try

I’ve met others who has failed

Ill overcome and I’ll survive

No one will stop me 

You can’t take my strength away

I get stronger every day. 

People say I’m weak

But they don’t know what I can do

I’ve tried the easy way

It’s not the better way

I’ll give it my hardest

I’ll try try try

No one can stop this monster inside

But I will

Those who have hurt me

Told me I can’t

I’ll show them

I’ll try I’ll try

I’ll help others

So the can try

I don’t want anyone to die

Survival Poem-Alonso

By Alonso

Some may say my life was hard

That is why they stay on guard

They shoot their glares

Thinking why does he stare

They sit down and pretend to talk

While I’d rather just walk

They brand me with insanity

While I take their profanity

Their lies are only cries

Sometimes I really hate life

But I refuse to take the knife

My brother and sister think they’re great

But they only make me feel hate

The man I once called dad

Only makes me feel mad

I am the families’ black sheep

Not theirs to keep

Still others say I’m bright

And that is

What continues my flight

Survival Poem-Seth

Life

By: Seth Smith

Life is a risk

Living is given

Surviving is a wall

Possibilities, choices

The confusion of life

Circles and twists

Fallen, the pain

The struggle to move forward

Insolence

The power

The persistence isn’t given

It’s a dance

A mixture of twirls

The pace

Heart racing

The determination

Doubts feel the mind

Feelings of despair

Caution

Jumping into the battle

The pressure of vulnerability

It the risk

The rush of the tide

Failure seems clearer

Doubts to resist

The pull

Like the suction of a tornado

The impossibilities

It all must be overcome

Imagination the shining star

To put up the fight

That is the risk

Life is a risk

Survival Poem-Brittany

ROSE By Brittany M

It was once beautiful, it had

For a minute, been beauty and that’s all it was.

Yet through the pain, broken heart and broken leaves

It all fell apart in seconds,

Then never thought it was beauty again.

It never blossomed, it never grew, it never knew.

Then when one day when someone tried to pick this rose,

It shied away.

For that someone did not know,

That the rose was dying,

And never let that someone pick it.

So that someone left and left the rose to die.

Survival Poem-Octavio

Unknown

I have a thing for you

I want to sing for you

You have a Dream you see

That we all seem to see

And all you want to do

Is have a thing to do

We need you to hurry now

So we could see you now

And all the laughs you have

With all the rest of us

You see we have a thing for you

I always dream of you

I know your name

They know your game

So they want you tamed

Every bit, every strain

Down the drain

But I have a thing for you

I want to sing for you

I want to be with you

I want to sing with you

I want to be seen with you
