You can close the door,
But you can't shut me out.

You can bang on drums
But you can't drown me out

You can beat me to the ground
But up I will get

You can shout the odds
But it won't hold any threat

You can humiliate me in a crowded room...
You can laugh at the times I'm filled with gloom
You can love it when I crumble to the ground

You can hate it when I don't stay down
You can hold all the power because it's yours to lose
You can use it with the intension to cause pain if you chose

You can dig me out of happiness...
You can try to fill me with bitterness
You can hide inside your lies

You can be unmerciful to my pleading cries!
But what hasn't worked yet probably never will!
So who is the one with the strongest will?

If you haven't destroyed me when you re through...
Then I know I'm the winner and the loser is you!

Writer Profile
Adeyemi Adisa


When I examine myself, I see writing as the only way to express my thoughts and have been wasting no time, however little, in ensuring that I express myself. This is an inspirational thought, potentially instilled in each and everyone of us, but the ways we express ourselves is the difference. I hope to meaningfully make use of most of my time and positively share my thoughts with others. You can check out my site (www.yemmmmy.co.nr) for more of my articles and poems.
