Many people claim they're afraid of dying

But I say they're just lying
life is the hard part
that's why we are always sighing

Life is like a book
every chapter brings on new troubles

but
We should worship our memories
not willingly wash them away
because they're what make us strong

Life is hard
but it makes our spirit sing
to the birds

Actualy,
true death means
You lead a life of conformity
and your spirit does not sing

Thats what you should be afraid of

Poems like this need to be read by all teens who think that if they don't "fit in" them they don;t have anything to stand for. Always remember that each individual has something that is unique about themselves and that should be embraced.
