project4:that type of strong
The strength it takes to turn around,
To back away,
Not make a sound,
The strength it takes to smile,
The strength it takes to speak up,
To me it’s like sprinting miles.
It’s the strength like that that hold me back.
It’s the strength that I don’t have.
I try my best not to cry,
My heart just needs a lullaby.
‘go to sleep, go to sleep, just for once, forget to beat.’
To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
