Married to life


i have seen hurt, and i have known pain i know a thing or two about loss when i had everything to gain i have been alone, standing tall i will be here long after you are gone when you sleep i have seen morning light when it is hard to close my eyes i have seen dreams and nightmares all as one i have seen red, i have seen black from cocaine to crack all in my dictionary called the WORLD i have seen weddings, i have seen funerals, but happiest days were when my parents were there, and the saddest when they were taken away i have seen criminals, i have seen humans there is not much difference humans are criminals some are honest, some call themselves saints some are Satans answer to hell whoever they are they are humans i have known the world the cruel world, but i have grown strong and learned to endure for better or worse i am married to life so i can't argue,give up or say that i want to divorce you, i am married to this world where all is fair in love and war for in between i will go through, through these vows i made to reach success and beyond but will I ever climb out of the dark whole this world created will i entangle myself from these web of lies.
