Life


Life is getting out of bed, going to school, coming home, repeat.

Life is fun,laughter, and dancing in the sun.

Life is fighting for survival, a constant strain on your will

Life can beat you, down never giving you a break

Life will throw everything at you, giving you no mercy.

But it's your life no one elses.

You have to take life's hard lumps

You have to face tragedies, break ups and failures.

But don't ever quit!

Because if you do, then you aren't really living

One day, you will have your day in the sun. 

But only if you don't let your life beat you down. 

So keep fighting the despair, pain, and anger you feel

And then, you'll win.
