Too Tough Poem by nyna bankard

I came into this world with nothing but a dream
As the years go by it gets much harder than it seems.
The trials & tribulations are just too much, I swear
To think there's not to be more than I can bare.
So many obstacles that I have to choose
I hope this ain't a game, cause I don't wanna lose.
I'm tired of this struggle that I'm holding down
I just wanna stand with both feet on the ground.


Sometimes when it rains it just seems to pour
But I never give up, I keep coming back for more.
I give'em what I got as I hold my head up high
I won't let this lifetime fade & pass me by.
I just pray for the strength that I know I need
And I'm always thankful for everything I receive.
So if you try to break me, know that it will be rough
Been going strong way too long & my skin is just too tough!
