The Gift Of Being Alive

In a world

Where darkness

Overruled happiness

And hate killed joy

In a world

Where your friends

Were your enemies

And trust was dead

In a world

Where your family

Was never there

When you needed help

In a world

Where love was

Unknown and gone

Left in the past

In a world

You never wanted

To live in

Or face each day

That world

I destroyed

My mind being

The executioner

The sun now shines

Every little thing

Holds beauty

And life

Where everyday

Is special

Even when

You've nothing planned

Living in the moment

Bringing a smile

A laugh

Into the world

Feeling the breeze

On your skin

Whether it is cold

Or it is warm

Be thankful

That everyday

You are gifted

With being alive

Author's Notes/Comments:

Life's too short to hate and be angry.
I am lucky that I have a loving sister who is always there for me.
A brother who treats me like his best mate.
A mother that treats me like a sister and a father who guides me though life.
We are lucky that also the freedom to expression that the human race was given can be so beautiful that no one should let them go to waste. So whether you be musical or a writer an artist or something else. My message is, Let Your Spirit Soar!
