About Life

About Life

Life is not easy and that's a fact.
We never know what's up ahead.

We can't control - what we don't know.
So we just try to go with the flow.

We try so hard to be what we are not, to
please someone, not knowing for what.

Life is hard, I have already found out.
I live in this world and that's no doubt.

My life started when I was born, than it 
went on and on.

Now at this point - what do I do? Do I keep
going, or stay here with You?....

Poet Tacito July 19, 2013 at 7:39 AM When people become who they aren't, they're not really living. I used to be that way a long time ago. That ended. Now, I've never been more confident about who I am and how I should be treated by others. It is why I call very few people a "friend". When we know our worth, the realness will value us the same. Wonderful piece! Smile on!
