The Voice Of Wisdom


They say everybody has a reason to live, a motive to carry on
And even when you feel as low as this earth, that the journeys just begun
Life surely isn’t what I expected and I’d rather give it up
But I’ve learnt that failure is never an option even if your life is completely messed up.

Every second of the day another heart is heard weeping,
It’s the sound of shattered glass, for another life is bleeding
This Young girl is tired and lost inside
She’s giving up on it all now. She can’t find her pride
The syringe isn’t going to help her and neither will the knife
We can’t let these voices stop her from becoming a man’s wife

She slowly picks herself up and stands upon the ground
She lowers hands to her mouth without making a sound
She picks up the knife and throws it from the ledge
It lands below in an old man’s hedge

She starts to cry when she hears a voice
It’s her best friend again giving her a choice
You can’t do this girl; you can’t give up on your dreams
She takes no notice and begins to scream:

“Live life for the people who no longer believe
Live life for the moment, grow up and don’t be naive
Live life knowing that tomorrow is a new day and we can face it as a team
Live life knowing that world can be whatever you make it, just find your voice, and close your eyes, learn to DREAM!!!”

I still think this is one of my best ever poems n considering we have loads of new ppl i thought i would see what u all thought...
