Falling falling gone

I’ve never given much thought about the things I do 

I never had to think about it because I don’t care 

Let me rephrase that 

Didn’t care 

You see I have done stupid things

Things I regret 

And for what 

For that extra bit of fun 

For the adrenaline 

The adrenaline every time I sneak out 

Or get high 

Or skip school

Or is it because I'm lost 

If I am lost 

Then what a life this is 

I have let down my family time and time again 

There is no more trust 

Just love 

And is there even love if I don’t love myself 

Life is hard 

But it’s just the beginning 

I’m still young, still in high school

I haven't lived yet

I haven't fallen in love

I haven't had my dream job

I haven't seen my kids or even grand-kids grow up

But just because I am young 

And don’t know what the real world is about 

Doesn’t mean life doesn’t suck 

So why did I do all those thing I regret now 

Yes it could be the adrenaline or the fun 

But it could also be the feeling I get 

The feeling of happiness 

The feeling to smile 

And I mean a real smile 

Not a fake one I put on for my family So they know i’m okay

Sometimes I feel as if my life is falling apart 

I am falling apart 

Just falling and falling 

With no one to help me up 

But hey that's life 

And it’s hard 

But sometime you need to fall to get back up

So I hope one day 

One day I will get up

Get up and stop making mistakes 

That I will regret 

I know now 

I know why I did those stupid things 

Yes it is because of the fun and adrenaline 

But also for the happiness and smile that comes with it

we make our mistakes in life because we are fallible creatures imperfect and doomed with choice. Thus we don't always choose right and must live with regret. But that should never dissuade us from living life at our fullest. Because for every teardrop there is a smile waiting to happen. For every heartbreak there is a new love undiscovered waiting for us. For every bad day there is a good one around the corner. So many endless possibilities and so few moments to live them. Be true to you...mistakes, victories...and happiness.
