Life can be a wonderful place
If you live it in a positive way
Hurt feelings and bad relationships
Make us stronger from day to day.

From your first shave
To your very first kiss
From your first dance
You feel happy, lifes bliss.

Friends come and go every now and then
Through your youth and through your teens
Only one or two will be above the rest
They're the one's in all your dreams.

You experience Love
For the good and the worst
It could be the sun from above
Or your heart and heavens burst.

You get many things in life
But none of them are free
You eventually pay your price
My true loves not meant to be.

Be careful of your choices
And all the thing you do
Love's supposed to be heaven
Not black and blue.

You think you have it
Then it goes just like that
You wonder why it happened
Why life's kicked you in the back.

I'll be honest with you
Life's about searching
For that one special person
Your heart and soul start emerging.

When life throws you a curve
Get back on your feet smiling
One day you'll find Love
From your first breath living and last one dying

This was a very good piece.
Second last stanza, when you said "I'll be honest with you," it had a neat effect on me. Seemed more personal.
And the message is simply magnificent.
Very well done.

Nicely done here!!! I think it's great!!


I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
