Sometimes I think about a plain open field
The gentle smell of the cold breeze
As I lay on the damp, soft grass
I have my open shield protecting me
I was not born by society
I was born by my mother
I am a human being just like every other
Life gives you second chances
Life also gives you lessons
Don’t let the world pressure you
If you do it will kill you with its presence
you will be sucked into a world that is a lie
You need to build resilience and fly high
Remember
scorpions sting deep
vampires will drain you
Then leave you to weep
Spend your time that you have left in your life,
Doing what you think is right
What makes you happy
You are destined to be you
So be true to yourself
Live how you want to live
Feel how you want to feel
One day
There will come a day
That you won’t feel no more
You will be a soul buried in the air
knowing your life was lived
The way you wanted to live
moments before

Carpe diem and suck the marrow from the bone. Live life to the fullest as far as we know it is the only one we will ever have. A lovely write
