“The Beauty of Life”

 

Live your life!

Live it like there is no tomorrow!

You have been through failures and successes,

Friendships and relationships; you know what it feels like.

You know what it feels like to be loved and appreciated by others,

You know what it feels like when someone doesn’t like you for you,

You know different kinds of people who are out here in this world, today,

So I think it is about the time that you let all of the negative/bad things go

You need to relax and notice the blueness of the ocean; how much it glistens,

The beauty of nature, the greenness of the trees, and the brightness of the sun

Oh! The light from the sun; the light that shines upon you on a sunny day,

The light that shows the true color of one’s beautiful, colored eyes,

The light that shines against your soft, smooth skin as you walk

It doesn’t matter what race you are, black or white

 But you have to live your life while you have it

Life is not eternal for us humans.

It will end at some point.

Death…

                                                        Is                                     a

                                                        Very                              sad

                                                        Way                                to

                                                        Leave                            our

    Planet called Earth; a planet that is more unique,

 A planet that has humans like you and me

 We are people that’ll die without knowing

 So, life is like a hot air balloon

   It starts of all slow, then later,

    You are out of sight

     Nowhere to be seen,

     Dead.
