LIFE
LIFE
In life, there are associated risks,
Some become lessons learned, and some are indeed gifts.
Protecting your spirit on a daily is a grift.
Pretending to be happy when you’re feeling crappy.
It is masking the pain with smiles that make you want to revolt.
I have been choked, broke, and cold,
Broken and unspoken through many years,
Yet still found the power to live and honey that came from deep within.
The way you live, and give is what’s important,
all the followers in the world don’t prove you worth it,
the love you can give yourself at a moment’s notice
by simply looking in the mirror and seeing the prototype for everything perfect.
