Life Is Not a Poem

Life Is Not A Poem
Life is not a poem eye cannot make it rhyme it has no sway 
Or motion nothing to decide.
Live and pray then love
Eat and leave the past behind
Love and hurt and love
Hope that you are taste
Hope that she can want you
Even in her haste
Hope that she will want you
In her places that she goes
Hope that she can use you
To mend the heart so full of holes the loss of all the past and all the life that she 
had then to leave behind her losses and her darkness for today she made me 
smile real life is not a poem and is painful after all is said and done the smile 
has won.
