I WILL CONTINUE

Desperate to hold on.
I'm not ready to die just yet.
My strength is failing.
My resolve waning.
But I am still here.
I am still alive, and as long as I am
  I will continue.
Desperate to let go.
My burdens weigh me down.
Slowly crushing me underneath.
I suffocate under all the weight.
But I am still here.
I am still alive, and as long as I am
  I will continue.
I will press on.
I will push on.
I will carry on.
I will walk on.
I must sojourn.
I will continue, I will continue on.
And if it kills me, so be it.
At least I can say I did it.
So, I will continue even on to the end.
Not till I reach my destination.
Welcomed into eternity.
Only then will I stop to rest.
Till then I will live, I will continue.

  1. Life continues, the moment is ever passing. Our borrowed time is ever fleeting. It will be hard, you will give up now and again. But as long as you ware still here, you must continue.
