Surrender

Give in.

just throw in the towel.

why keep fighting a losing battle? 

is it worth it?

 all the anxiety, 

all the pain and hell that you'll go through for it?

We all have dreams

right where they belong

in that little space where your sub-conscience ponders reality 

Want to be a painter?

use colors on the palate,

that have never even considered looking good together

make somebody cry just from your painting?

please

Ever dream of being a writer?

mixing words into a beautiful display of intelligence?

enticing readers to follow their dreams,

like you followed yours

ha please

You think you can change the world?

Do away with all of the orphans,

End world hunger,

create a clean renewable source of energy?

come one, please

You're no Da Vinci,

you're not Picasso, Charles Dickens or Martin Luther King Jr.

Who do you think you are?

Bill Gates, Earnest Hemingway, or Mother Theresa.

Please. 

Please!

please...

please don't surrender

please don't give up just because it might seem a little difficult

or impossible.

impossible is just a compound word,

i'm possible

please don't quit just because doubts whispered in the night

hooking you like a million fingers digging into your skin

and slowly Dragging you deeper into your own personal abyss

You may not  be a legend. 

Legends were once just like you.

a kid with a dream

Until one day they broke free into immortality.

WAKE UP and smell the bloody roses!

One day the drummer in your chest is gonna stop beating on your heart

The only Question is what are you going to do between now and then?

What are you gonna fight for?

If it's important to you,

you'll find a way.

If it's not,

you'll find an excuse

Are you going to give up on YOUR dreams?

Give up?

Surrender?

Wait until the air begins to leave your throat to start living?

or are you going to get up and listen to "we are young" by fun

then go and live a beautiful life?

'Cause tonight we are Young.

It's our chance to burn brighter than the sun.

What do i know?

But Me,

I will not Surrender
