Keep Fighting !!

When all the world is up against you
When the going gets tough
And you know it
Keep Fighting !!

When all seems lost
You feel the allpervading crap around you
And all you have is you own will to work for you
Keep Fighting !!

Your sinews and your mind
Are the only friends that you have
And when you are convinced what you do is good
Keep Fighting !!

If you have a cause
Or if you don't, but know something is wrong
And can't tolerate injustice
Keep Fighting !!

Your conscience is the one that matters
And if it does not pinch you
For you know that you are right
Keep Fighting !!

When the going gets tough
The tough get going
And if you know that you should
Keep Fighting !!

Do what you love
And love what you do
There is no going back, and therefore
Keep Fighting !!

For your Heart and for your Mind
Never forget but that there is love
And there is the sweet rain
To fall in love is a sweet thing
And to come out of it a poison
Even then life is tough and oft less forgiving

And hence you know
You have to
Keep Fighting !!

myself getting into the 'fighting' mode at the start of a brand new (and arguably the toughest around) semester of battipana, will remember these words :)

never been into poetry
thankfully the title explains the poem and it doesn't tell me what to do in some abstract terms so good job.
will keep fighting but for what cause or purpose i do not know.

hey afro, no more romantic poem this time :)
well, this one is definitely good (but definitely not good enough to motivate me)..
i am sure, you can definitely write better than this..
keep trying..
