Are You Strong Enough? (Poem Circa 2009)

While pushing forward
to reach your goal
you encounter a numbness
that keeps you going
so you feel no pain
You can almost see it
but it's just out of reach
shall you keep going?
I guess we'll wait and see

Are you strong enough?
To continue
the same race
because it will never stop. 
It's a battle from within,
and if you stop, it's the end
but if you dare to stay standing
you'll eventually have to give in

Are you ready to except defeat?
you know you cant win
there's no point
why try when you know what your fate is?

But that's the thing,
you cant give into those negative thoughts
fate can always be changed
no matter what

now,
ask yourself,
are you really strong enough?

Let's go even a step further and say, we aren't going to introduce our single friends to another potential single friend, if they're shitty at relationships. Now, I'm not saying that we should fabricate who we are. I'm not saying that at all. But, we live in a technologically savvy society where everyone can see what we...
