Life, Learn To Live


Over The past few years I have learnt a lot about me
I’ve learnt about who I am, who I can become and who I will truly never be
I’ve travelled the journey they seem to call our life
I’ve seen the tears a grown man has cried for his dying wife

Life surely isn’t what I expect 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.
Everybody has a reason to live, a motive to carry on
And even when you feel as low as this earth, trust me the journeys just begun

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 just can’t find her  pride

Live life for the people who no longer believe
Live life for the moment, grow up and don’t be naïve
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!!!

An interesting poem and I like the tone.  

"Live life for the people who no longer believe"
It is a nice thought that living twice as much for those who do not wish to anymore might help them. Perhaps, the world might be a better place with more people like you living in it.

"Live life knowing that world can be whatever you make it, just find your voice, and close your eyes, learn to DREAM!!!"

Thank you very much for sharing this.

"The world won't end in darkness, it'll end in family fun
With Coca Cola clouds behind a Big Mac sun."

One God by The Beautiful South
