WALKING THROUGH LIFE



As you walk,
Through this thing
They call life.
Never asking to be here,
But often asking why.
You learn fast,
You have to fight
To stay alive.
Or you will slowly
Get eaten,
That alone
Makes your will strong,
For life you strive.
Sometimes,
You will stumble
Hell
You will even fall.
Chalk it up,
To a lesson learnt
You grow stronger,
You learn to stand tall.
For some,
It seems to hard
And they just give up,
Scared
And confused,
They would rather hide.
Than as fast,
As it started
Your time is up,
You now cross
To the other side.
When the pain,
Gets to unbearable
And the tears,
Are a steady flow.
Find a open door,
Then lock it
But not before,
You let it all go.
All that you have loved,
And all
That you have known.
Sit and think about it,
You came into this world
And will leave this world..
Alone.
