epiphany

It's true when they say 

that life is nothing but a dead end.

all we ever do is love, live and lie

and not forgetting the million times we have tried.

maybe if we sat aside

and watched life pass us by

and allowed it to teach us

how to survive in the wild

we wouldn't seek for what doesn't belong to us

but we would get straight to the point 

and waste no time

yes life would be boring 

because we would not have any stories to tell

no pain to feel but only 

laughter and fun.

but no ups and downs make life 

predictable

but unpredictability

makes life interesting

Old wise saying. "You must be born and you must die. Two require activities. The important part is what we do in the middle." I believe anyone can change the world around them. Even simple gifts of a smile, conversation and a helping hand if you can. Will make our journey a little bit better. I tell the young folks. Dance, sing and test life. One day you will wish you did. A very good poem. You made me think this early morning. Thank you for the excellent poem.

Predictable and boring. Unpredictable and interesting. If you want happiness and excitement, you have to deal with the pain and pitfalls as well. Life, as it seems, is a package, of good and bad, ups and downs. And you have worded that idea well enough. Good job.

Not bad. Somewhat simple and there are a few little grammar errors here and there, but you do touch on a very relatable point, which keeps this interesting. A good start.
