Life



Life is barbarous at times
At times things ain't always
as they seem.
I've been meandering this tightrope now
For more than half of my live.
I'm distressed and hispanic
Hard to get around.
But all you can do is....enough!
Sometimes it's hard to say
Why things have to be this way!
But a life taken for granted isn't up to par
Take a breath to think and restart.
The tethers that I once wore
Can't contain me anymore.
I am untied and fly my wings
Cherishing all the appealing things.

About this poem

It's about how harsh can life become. But one should never back off.
