Life

Life is a mess Life is a mission it is a test Many succeed many fail Trials and tribulations on its tail Try to bring us down to the worst we can be So we are ever conflicted and never free Family friends and love ones seems to care But when you are tested they are never there At your saddest moments they can't be found When there's success they are always around They see only the happy you but not what is on the inside Due to you not being able to show them so you hide Your feelings your thoughts and your depression Your pain your sorrow your troubles and emotions Always left in the dark and shadowed by others your friends parents and family never notice your there But misses you whenever you’re gone Never realizing the importance of your presence until there is no one there. The family you live doesn't love you the way you do The friend you consider friends don't consider you The people around you that you wouldn't stab in the back Would do it to you in the blink of an eye without looking back You always seem to give second chances but never get in return But you always forgive and forget because you never learn Material things puts on their face a bright smile But like material things that lasts for a while Back to square one the hatred the longing to belong The loneliness the foreshadowing the weakened bond that was once strong All disappear like smoke in the western breeze Conflicting your mind which was once at ease. Very few people to talk to and share your mindset To curb the emotions that you feel and have felt Pouring it into your poetry and essays but never sends a message Cause there is no one to read a sentence a paragraph a stanza or a passage.
