Living or Surviving

Living or Surviving

the nights grow longer

while the clouds roll in

the air gets colder

unwanted feelings get stronger

scary things from within

begin to rise to the surface

death shouts

her lips so bliss

calming

gone with a simple kiss

the game called life

so many things we sacrifice

born to die

the simple question

for all mankind

are you living

or surviving 

death can take you at anytime 

a simple kiss is all it takes

to make the pain

go away

This was an amazing write, Hannah. Sometimes just simply being loved will help. From a family member, friend, or even that special someone. Keep living and surviving. As young as you are, you are a strong one. Sometimes life forces us to grow up faster than we need or want to. Always here for you sweetie. xo Winter

...or last for a forever.

You gave a good and real life's focus question ...few will really answer it inside themselves let alone externally. I'm living.

This is very good poetry. Poetry support make us think. You did.
"are you living
or surviving "
The above lines need to be answered. Easy to become invisible. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

....sometimes just the touch of a gentle hand...a sigh...a flutter of the heart...
Although not as tasty as a kiss...it too can vanish the pain.

Excellent thoughts here.
Good job.
