Don't Give Up

Playing tennis,
Last place,
Trying to be an actress,
You look like a disgrace,
You think in life you won't succeed,
You want to give up,
But you bleed,
Your friends are better, you want to catch up,
But you don’t have the speed,
And you don’t succeed,
And that’s okay,
No one is perfect,
Don’t hear what others say,
They never are correct,
For the best you should pray,
Giving up will have a bad effect,
And a D in your essay,
On your past you should reflect,
Improve your mistakes in the best way,
Not giving up must be your main prospect,
And hopefully one day,
You will be the inspiration of a project,
About how much you succeeded,
Because you carried on,
Even though you got defeated,
Giving up should be a con,
Even when the game is heated,
Have the hopes of a white crayon,
Never gets picked, yet it still waits seated,
Be like a chess pawn,
Moves forward until it gets completed,
Practice more,
So you won't get defeated,
Don’t give up and be a winner or,
Give up and be unneeded.
