Life is Pain


Through this pain I will succeed

Let’s make my life a tweet

For you don’t know that my heart will bleed

I will smile but my friends would frown

Where have I gone wrong?

Be myself, make good grades.

For these reasons I want it to rain

So no one can see my tears

I do not fear

 For my love for success is clear

I will be who I want to be

It doesn’t matter if you won’t let me

For what can I do but just be me?

For the pain that’s in my heart

Doesn’t hurt

It motivates me to become the person I want to become.
