"Live life today because yesterday is gone and tomorrow may never come."


Life seems like its hard to handle.
All the bull and drama feels like yur being strangled.
Needing that moment where things are stress free,
its kinda hard to get but please listen to me.
Giving up yur life isnt the way to pay fees.
Yes things happens where yur feeling hurt,
tryna find the brighter side but it doesnt seem to work
gettin dugged deeper in the dirt.
Everyone is gonna have their ups and downs, smiles and frowns.
One minute people are close and the next their not around.
But dont give up now, this is where yu show yurself and everyone else how life is a blessing.
The stressin is jus lessons god is tryna teach.
Live life till he gives yu an end is what hes tryna preach.
Dont ever decide that yur life is at defeat,
We need to be strong and fight the wrongs.
Success will be there i swear in yur reach.
Stay on yur feet and keep moving.
Yes it gets so tough where yu need a break,
But ending it all is the biggest mistake.
Theres gonna be a way out of ***,
Rest if yu need to but dont ever quit.
Real talk dont give up, the pace may seem slow,
but dont go cuz yu never know the light will come on the next blow.
Yur not gonna kno how close yu are,
yur mind is occupied and it seems so far.
We have music, use it.
Yu are yur own artist, write what yu feel when things are at its hardest.
Let it out with singin, dancin, drawing, poetic flow and other things that makes the light show.
Because throwing it all away just leaves yu in the shadows to stay.
So please, ill repeat,
Dont ever quit.
Life is life, things will happen but jus fight it.
We go thru obstacles to learn and with all the knowledge we earn,
it helps us move foward.
Be strong its only right to fight the wrongs.
Help others out, speak about positive ideas and lend it.
Right now is the time to say thats enough,
before yu turn around and someone else is tryna end it.

I wrote this last year because about 2 or 3 teen suicides occured. They were high school students in my school. A lot of people were effected by it. Also 3 years ago 2 high school students that attended my school gave up too. It isnt right =( it needs to stop.

&quot;A woman&#039;s heart should be so lost in God, a man needs to seek him in order to find her.&quot;<br /> &quot;It is never the end, Just a chance for a new beginning.&quot;
