A Vida Loca

A Vida Loca Why do people live a vida loca? Maybe they didn't have a good guidance, or maybe they just picked the wrong kind of friends. It could be that they think - they got it all together and to them nothing else matters. They forget their famlies and everything - for a vida loca is their only dream. A vida loca, you can find anywhere. Don't fall in that trap, or you may never get out of there. A lot of kids live la vida loca. They think of that life as peaches and cream. In a vida loca you can find everything - from sex to drugs and pleasures to fulfill your fantasy dreams, but that's all they are - fantasy dreams. Wake up, wake up, before it's too late. come back to reality or your fantasy dreams will become a nightmare of broken dreams...

I remember those days Lucy, though no drugs or alcohol , music, girls, fast cars and some footloose travelling were enough adrenaline for me, Great poem of a warning nature. Take care, Richard

To live a "Vida Loca" is not to live at all for how can one live when ignores what life is in the first place? Excellent message!

A vida loca is quite new to me but I could gasp what it should be draining away the youth, Lucilla
