It's hard to keep a tuff person down, even when he's already down, he'll find away, to make life pay.

If I would have let my negative side win,
I would have been beat before I even begin.
I'm a lot further,
because I did bother.
I still have negativity in me,
But I learned not to let it rule me.
Negativity will rule your mind,
and weaken your spine,
It will tarnish your heart and soul,
and make you want to fold.
After considering the alternative,
I chose the strong positive.


It's hard to keep a tuff person down,
he or she will rise up and start to pound,
they'll go on the attack
and fight life back.


I told myself, "this is the way I want to be."
so at an early age I reprogrammed me.
Oh, I still don't have much,
but I'll always appreciate the positive touch.


These poems I write,
help me keep positivity in sight,
to use to improve my might.


Choice,


G

Great !
Your negative side - should there really be any - will never take control over your positive thinking. You are an extraordinary and strong person.

I do the same thing myself; write stuff that is sad and depressive; then write of happy or inspirational stuff. Good write, as always, Grady; you never disappoint!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend, Karen Lynn. :D

Our writes truly reflect our moods, don't they?? Hope all is well with you; you are in my prayers!
