Life is A Struggle


Men and women fight to have Something that is tangible unlike Children that run falling over the earth With pieces of their torn skin painting the Cement in order to catch a shooting star and Wish for a life living in castles eating delicacies Fit for princes and princesses from story book Fairy tales while enjoying the vivid imaginations Of riding on unicorns with a double-edged sword slaying Invisible dragons and gaining the love from everyone Who has heard their names while showering them with knick Knacks that they've picked up on their adventure But the children not knowing that their world would be Barricaded in by many walls blocking them from Their colorful paths once they are older and only Then they would know that life is a struggle.
