The Story of Life

by Tainted Butterfly   Apr 10, 2005


Life begins small
And becomes LARGE.
It takes you to the top
And makes you fall to the bottom.
It gives you hope.
Yet not always understanding.
It gives you trust in people,
But doesn't always show you happiness.

Life takes time and commitment.
Patience and hope.
If life crumbles to the ground,
It was not real.
If it climbs over everything,
It is a dream.
If it falls yet gets up to try again,
It is successful.

You grow in life's experience.
You learn acceptance
You learn of honor
You learn in beliefs
You learn what makes happiness.

Life would not be life if it wasn't hard.
But it is worth it in the long run.
It is hard to survive,
but it makes you stronger over it's course.

Remember the true road of life is always worth taking.
Only if you are ready to take the challenge.

If you ask yourself to believe and hope,
You will.
If you tell yourself not to give up,
You do.
If you tell yourself it is worth it,
It is.

Life is a whole world to explore.
So if you are ready for this challenge...
Do it for you.

*A poem I wrote in my teens. Just some rambled thoughts. :)
