Life


Life as a whole will never change,

Our political system will never change,

the brutality and fear will never change,

that is life. 

Life is a person who wants to do better, to be better.

Life is always being picked up and put

down like a hammer to a nail.

My friend life hasn't been the same since the day it was born 

The earliest memory it has is before the war, famine, and grief. 

Before our homes were split up by divorce and money. 

Life is trying it's very best. 

I hope you can accept life for who they are.
