Life goes on

A Poem by Shadow

Smile for please?

Life goes on
You may feel heavy
despite all the butterflies
flying away
going back home
they are not yours
so don't claim they are
just smile and realize
life goes on
gotta live it up
until it's gone
cause no one
will be around too long
Your friends will leave
and soon you will fade
but smile
and have fun while you can
go through the mundane
There will be sacrifices
life isn't all boredom
There will be dedication
Choices...
And darkness...
Don't forget though
there will have to be darkness first
to realize how much you love the sunshine...
You will have someone to hold you...
With tenderness...
At least once in your lifetime
That is something to look forward to
Do not believe you will make better mistakes tomorrow
So...
Take a deep breath...
For it's a bad day...
Not a bad life...
And I do love you...
So again...
For the second or third time...
Smile...
I love your smile...
You are beautiful...
Do not let anyone else say so otherwise.
