A poem my mom found that I wrote in 8th grade. I read it and cried. Hit me straight to the heart.
I am.. Happy
I have cried,
I have known happiness, And sadness, I am me.
I know..that I have to live to tell.
I believe…that life teaches us many lessons.
I see..that life is difficult and that we have to fight for what we want.
I’ve met…people who don’t understand the value of life.
I have heard…the sounds of nature.
I tend… to think how ironic life is.
I’ve seen…how bad is to hurt other people.
I want…to always live happy.
I realize…that my family and true friends are very special to me.
I understand..that we have to value what we have in life, before life takes it away from us.
Love,
R
