More Than What I See

when you see life
what do you see?
i see all the things
it wishes to be

i see the potential 
of a perfect world
but that is just the opinion
of a dying girl

we have diseases
and death all around
kids getting raped
and beat to the ground

what is see in life
isnt what i want to see
but i see the pain
and how life is treating me

if you are young
dont live to fast
you can drink and smoke 
but the fun wont last

a peive of advice
appreciate life
dont miss an oppertunity
to take a pencil and write

about how you are preciuos
and can be what you want to be
you are lifes own lifeline
you are more then what they see

you are you!!!!
