Life


Life isn’t fair

Life means

A little closer to death

Each year we celebrate life

The name of the holiday is 

A birthday

Though you may be exited

About being a year older

It really just means

You are one year closer to death

Although you become closer to death

You should enjoy life

While you still live

Enjoy the little things that happen

Even if there a little dumb

Enjoy the things that make you,

You

Never hesitate to do what you love

And most of all

Never say Never

Enjoy your life
