Life


Life

Life is easy you say

not all that easy

life is gray

to me at least

we are divided into two different realms

even though were right next to each other

living on the same earth 

yes we see each other its such a mighty sight! you say

but deep on the inside the struggle runs deep like the blood 

in the vains inside my body

we are all on a mission 

some peoples lives arent as bright as others 

yes some people may see the struggle and may try to help but

90 percent of this world is selfish 

your 3 group of friends may seem like a help but 

the big picture which is the whole world is like a sea 

we are all on different missions 

which may seem hard to you because it seems like noone is helping

but  its best if you stand tall and on your own like a soldier because 

you are your own root which came from the ground

nurture yourself

and help others  even though those people

you help will just use you but please

im begging you stand strong and dont give up 

there is good and there is evil in the world 

dont let disguised things distract you

and fill your world with hope and despair

yeah you may find things that interest you

and you may say the world is a wonderful place

but to me i will never be satisfied with this world 

this crazy world i call life.
