|

Hey yall I have been seeing alot of news about death and suicide and things like that, and I would like to voice my opinions on all of this through a poem I wrote a while ago. You all are my friends, and I too know your pain. There has been alot of death it seems recently, it really is sad, and I am sorry. This poem was written for anyone who is feeling down. This is to you Raph, Bobbins, and CJP:
The Optimist
Some believe, Hopes are dashed on the rocks of life.
Others say, how can we endure such strife,
when we do not know the joy of life?
Then I looked in on my own life,
and found these words that guide my way:
"What is the joy of life they say?
The joy of life is winning the right to say,
I had hope every day."
And those who ask me,
what do you live for when,
your day has come and all is done?
What do you live for then?
This is the answer to them I say,
If I live for that one day of fame,
which no one thought I would attain,
and I seize the moment that makes my name,
and I accomplish the goals that I ordained,
then what I lived for,
was the life that I have gained.
When those who questioned me retire to their beds,
the image of happiness will fill their heads,
because optimism is second nature,
you must only lend it time to mature.
Optimism delights the wisest and the best.
No one can resist it,
not even the greatest pessimist.
You all are the greatest, you will always have a friend in me.

You just have to keep on going, but you also can't forget about the happy times. |
