Looking

Life is not simple
more complex I'd say
it starts at birth
finding your way into this world
living one day at a time
till you find yourself looking for something better each day
trying to raise a family with what little money you make
each day crying to figure out how to pay each bill
till one day you feel like giving up then life changes
