Reasons to live

life

By Red SkyePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Life is never easy

when your on your own

dreams may come

Dreams may go

living each day

trying to find a way

proving to yourself alone

that there is reason in life

finding reasons to dream on

when dreams always seem to die

never letting tears fall

for all that never was

your loneliness

drives you to the edge

think about it hard

before you do something

that can't be healed

you've only got one life to live

and one you're dead

that's it

there's no second chances

somewhere there's a person

who will be your friend

someone on who you can depend

all it takes is patience

don't bring your life

to a violent end.

Reasons to live (January 89)
