Life (Poem)

Life

Life,

When you say it's long,

It's not long at all.

Life,

When you say it's short,

It's not really short at all.

Every second,

Someone dies,

From old age, illness, accident, murders and suicides.

Some people are rich,

Some people are poor.

Some people are happy,

Some people are not.

All emotions are etched onto our faces in our lifetime.

And will stay there forever until we die.

Suicide,

It's never an option.

Killing yourself will never solve problems.

But it will bring only more pain and sorrow in your family.

What your family has,

Is you.

You were that one of a kind person in the family.

You were destined to be in that family,

Where no one else could.

Please,

Appreciate what you have and your life.

Your future life could be changed by making right choices.

Where the past cannot be changed.

So,

What is in the past,

Is the past.

So forget it,

And continue living your life happily.
