Drop your guard <br />and end the fight <br />Turn your back <br />and make it right <br /> <br />Ignore the pain <br />that comes to mind <br />It’s not your fault <br />for love is blind <br /> <br />Forget the past and <br />face what lies ahead <br />Whatever goes wrong remember: <br />It’s not that bad <br /> <br />The future is good <br />that's all that counts <br />And the harder I am thrown <br />the higher I bounce <br /> <br />I'll dropp my guard (sorry, everytime I correct it, it goes back to wrong) <br />and make it right <br />Watch me surrender <br />and end the fight <br /> <br />So I admit defeat <br />but I’ll make it through <br />‘It’s not that bad’, is what you said <br />and I guess it’s true <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Dedicated to a good teacher and a great mentor<br /><br />jools England<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/not-that-bad-2/
