"Theme
for English 9"
Go
home and write a poem tonight.
Let
the words just flow onto the page,
your
verse will be all the rage,
and
everyone will see how well it is made."
Sometimes
I sit and wonder why
I even
bother to try
Nothing
ever goes my way
No
matter what I have to say
School
and work are just too tough
And as
for sleep I don’t get enough
New
babies are born and people die
And we
all have to go on wondering why
The
meaning of life no one will know
Except
for what others tell us so
Am I
the only one who feels this way?
Does
it keep getting harder with each passing day?
Is
life really worth all the pain?
Is it
possible to live without going insane?
I
guess in the end, the pain is worthwhile
But I
take the extra step and walk the extra mile
I will
continue to bring a smile upon someone’s face
I will
live at my own speed
Because
life’s not a race!
