BEING ALIVE
Aleja Bennett
To me, being alive you can accomplish alot
and no one can tell you that you cannot.
Being alive you can be whatever you want to be
It's all up to you, when you decide you'll see.
You will make mistakes this you will do
but when you learn from it you can start anew.
Being alive all starts from being a baby
and when we grow up we'll be a man or a lady.
Some of us have been abused and even used
by people that are cruel
they think we are some kind of freaking fool.
Being alive people hurt us over and over again
but we mess up when we let them win.
We may drink and get high to erase
or not think about our past
but you're only hurting yourself
just like other people have.
Be strong and go on and live your life
Don't go on forever carrying hate.
Don't let pain eat you up inside
because one day it can be too late.
Being alive is a wonderful thing
and when you choose life
you'll be on top of everything.
