Analysis of Sometimes Life...



Why is life so confusing?
Around every turn it's less amusing.
How much can I take?
Of this crazy fate?
Sometimes Life is way to hard
And I need to take a rest.
I do, I do, try my best,
But why can't I take a rest?
No one told me life was easy,
But no one said it was this hard either.
Sometimes Life is agrivating,
Dancing on your every nerve
Till it falls and splats on the pavement
And you go totally insane.
Screaming, yelling "Shut up!" till your throt is sore.
Nonsense is made of your actions,
But you know this isn't fair.
You have worked and worked, for Someone to tear it apart.
Not in life, not in death
Will any of us find the truth.
Sometimes, though, Life is great.
Full of goodtimes and memories.
Dreams coming true, Stars being born.
Children laughing, playing, singing.
Sometimes Life is happy, sometimes sad.
Full of good times and the bad.

I'm 13. I love Journey to the Past, Hey There Delilah, and Once Upon a December. I love the movies Scott Pilgrim VS The World and Anastasia."Life is one grand, sweet song, so start the music." ~Ronald Reagan"Life's greatest tragedy is not that it will someday end, but that most only live to follow directions and sometimes we end up totally lost." ~ Alex Gaskarth"Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking." ~ H. Jackson Brown, Jr."Our street corners keep secrets, and our road signs only suggest, never deciding for us, never knowing if the destination to which they lead is where we truly belong." ~ Alex GaskarthAwesome youtube video(s) of the week: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCmRIFVH4O4&feature=player_embedded http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FV-HPOHu8mY more…
