So undeservingly cruel.
It can break down
The strongest will.
Make the innocent
Feel the strongest guilt.
Burden those
Who spend their time relieving others of burdens.
Life can be so unfair.
So confusingly unfair.
Compassion
Causes sympathy pains.
Time spent in love
Causes only painful good-byes.
Hard work
Can go unappreciated or unnoticed.
Life can hurt so much.
So unbearably much.
An open heart
Is most easily wounded.
An open mind
Is most easily swayed.
And open soul
Is open also to evil.
Life can make me cry.
Cry so deep within that no tears show.
Why are helpless
Taken advantage of
Instead of helped?
Why are hopeless
Dismissed
Instead of encouraged?
Why is life so cruel?
Life could be so wonderful,
So full of joy, hope,
Love.
Life can be
Dreams coming true,
Goals being reached,
Lives being changed.
So why does it choose to be,
The way that it is at times?
How is it that life
Is the only thing that can
Inspire you to live,
And the only thing that can
Make you not want to live?
