This Life


This life I live, is the life I was given.

It's precious.

It's wonderful.

It's difficult.

It's life.

This life contains many truths of this world.

You will grow up.

You will get old.

You will fall in love.

You will live life.

This life contains many lies.

You are worthless.

You are perfect.

You are ugly.

You will have to handle life.

This life I live, is deception in itself.

It's ridiculous.

It's stupid.

It's irrational.

It's life.

This life contains deceivers.

You will love humans.

You will love this world.

You will love yourself.

You will love life.

This life contains reality.

You will have to choose.

You will have to learn.

You will have to understand.

You will be given life.

This life I live, is the life I was given.

It's terrible.

It's wonderful.

It's special.

It's life.

I found that poetry is the one and only way to fully get out what's stuck in my mind/ heart. A dear friend of mine encouraged me to write poetry and ever since then, I've written these poems. In less then a year, my poems have become well liked amongst friends and family. The first 15 I posted are the first 15 I did in a year's time. I write for me, and for other people who want to read them. If you don't like what I write, then don't be hateful. Only be critical.
