This is your life By aldo kraas, www.PoetryPoem.com/poet11586 Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime
There you are; so lonely. You just can't come around.
Uncertain of your future. Your present gets you down.
There you are. Lost your vision. The joy seems so far.
You're completely down. This is your life and there you are.
I hear you when you speak. I know that you're depressed.
So often you are down though you give your very best.
Staring at a gun, "Would they care if I were killed?"
I just want to be loved. How does that really feel?"
A lonely figure you are. Oh this life is passing by!
You just want to give up, but you give it another try.
A stoned look you have and your stare...it seems so far.
You feel like giving up. This is your life and there you are.
I cannot watch you do this! Listen to this plan.
I'll say words that'll help. I'll do the best I can.
I'll tell you what you need. What it is you must do.
I'll tell, but to change, well, that's simply up to you.
Lift the bar for yourself. Once you're there, take it higher.
Don't believe you cannot do it, for the devil is a liar.
Set goals for yourself. When problems come, don't let it be.
You're a conqueror! A winner! You'll go down in history!
I see the change in you now. The determination; it's in your eye.
You know you could do it. So spread your wings...up and fly!
"My troubles are now over. They kneel before me, taking a bow.
I'm a warrior slaying them all. Truly the storm is over now!"
With that said, you take life and grab it firmly by the throat.
Giving a sigh. A pain you feel...your just healing after the hurt.
Like a soldier, you go to war as I watch you slay them all.
The small, giants and all; I watch every last one of em fall.
Slaying guilt, , stress, and the feeling of being down.
Looking back at your life, you wonder, "How'd I come around?"
There you are standing in triumph! Now you are a shining star!
You won it all! Take a bow! This is your life and there you are!
