A Story by virginia

just a few things i think about involving life,

Life

What exactly is life? We go through this thing every single day of our lives. People will tell you to live life to the fullest. Live without regrets. But that’s the issue, we are only human and we will regret our decisions we will be cautious with life. Life is the longest thing we will ever do. We WILL go through heart breaks, we WILL have our downs but along with those downs we WILL have our UPS. A good friend once told me to think before I do something and well that’s probably the smartest thing anyone’s ever told me. He gave me a reality check. We must continue living for if we don’t no one else will live our lives for us. Hell I’m fifteen and I have my moments we’re I want to just end it. That’s not what a fifteen year old girl should be thinking about. I should be thinking about boys and dates and the ones I love. I should be able to go to high school and not be scared of the people. I shouldn’t have constant threats on my life because kids these days think its “cool.” But that’s life. Life can be a b***h. But life can also be beautiful and fulfilling. All we have to do is dream big enough and work hard enough… but to the youth these days having “swag” is more important than an education. Being the prettiest is more important than studying for exams. As if our looks will get us very far in our life. We must fight and get dirty for the things we most want out of this life and the next. We are the face of this country and if this is what our youth is like. Just imagine how they’ll be as adults. Hopefully they grow up and pull their pants up along with it.

Very, Very touching. I'm 15 also and I can relate to how you are feeling. It's not about how far we can throw a football, It's how willing we are to try our best in school. It was a very motivating poem.
Good job!
Keep on writing!
