    Acrostic:
    Never will i back down without a fight
    Everything may go wrong but, i will never
    Victory only comes to those who never give up
    Eventually i will get what i fought for
    Reality is i will never back down without a fight
    Acrostic: An acrostic poem is when certain letters in each line spells out a word or phrase. 1st letter in lines give a message.
    My poem is an acrostic i choose this type of poem because it can enforce something by putting a word for u to mainly focus on. I like that it focus on one topic and to me it gives the word a deeper meaning. And i like that the poem doesn’t have to rhyme like all the rest of the poems well at least some of them.
