Life

Life can make you feel complete, but it can also take defeat,
leave you out on empty streets and keep you waking up more weak,
life can mean a lot to someone, for others, it can kill them,
life has so much ways to feel, it depends on if you feel them ,
My life, for example, is too easy to get sick of,
some times I have mornings where I never want to get up,
I am not a sad man, but I lean on suicidal thoughts,
I would try to fight it off but I knew a guy who fought and lost,
I can't say I have it worse, but I can say it's pretty bad,
every time I'm getting sad, I hear all of the city laugh ,
this is my poem called life, I hope you like it some what,
I keep my mind on happy thoughts, but it hasn't really done much!

This poem must speak from experience. I have known some who have felt sad, and are now feeling glad. Life really has its cycles and the expressiveness of your poem certainly brings it to life. Welcome to Poetry Soup and keep writing. Great job! Joseph
