Life

LIFE

Life is just a journey
Yet it differs from the others;
Once begun
You can’t turn back
To start anew.
You only need straightening out 
The things you have messed up.


So we should be careful
With it
For we’ll never have 
A new beginning
Until we reach the end.

Well composed. We won't have a new beginning unless we reach the end. Thumb's up.

Good One. But, straightening out can be easier said than done. I had to call for help. Divine Help.

Hello! Thanks for your warm welcome. I'm 17, and currently studying at Kepler University, Rwanda. I did languages and literature at my high school. I live with my parents and two younger sisters and I've always dreamed of having some writings. Poems and songs are the most enjoyed part of my creativity. Anyway, I'll be glad to have you guys give a feedback and tell me what I have to improve. Peace, Skat!
