Dear Life issues


Haes Shake

 

Dear life Issues,

Maybe the point of all this despair

Is to wake with purpose

And realize that life is not about what, but where

Where are you going

Where have you gone

How are you growing

And where do you belong

These questions seem so dearest to me

I've been searching for as long as I can remember

And I have yet to see

One thing is for sure and its that life has two paths

You can stumble upon trouble and flee the scene

You can take accountability and enjoy lives wrath

Through all the negativity I choose a clean life

I live above what has brought me down

And I don't wallow in strife

So dear Life issues

Everyone has you

But when you are gone noone misses you

Instead I acknowledge you

I appreciate you

Without life issues there would be no happiness to pursue

Yours truly,

Haes Shake
