I endure
I endure by Ciana Medas
I am a stretchy piece of string
Who’s mission is to help
I am a stretchy piece of string
Who is never appreciated
I am helping but get no thanks
I am enduring but will soon pop
I am expanding but I will brake
And in the end I am incomplete
And just a broken elastic band
Who cannot endure anymore.
