Once Upon A Time
It's a once upon a time,
that makes you listen.
And it's your once upon time,
that isn't like any other;
for as it yours, it is mine.
It might have not had a happy beginning,
but the beginning doesn't tell the story of your life.
The beginning is always the hardest,
and even if it was filled with strife. . .
You and I can still make something out of our own life;
for I know someone out there,
understands your and my once upon a time.

I believe that everyone has their once upon a time, and even if your once upon a time wasn't happy in the beginning: never give up, because it's always hard in the beginning. Never give up, please. Keep trying. "Now don't stop! If you keep walking, you'll get to the top."" It's hard, I know. Life can be hard. I know, because my once upon a time wasn't a happy or the best one. But life isn't impossible. It's possible. Life is one of the gifts, given to us. We are meant to be here, there is a reason why we are here. Don't give up. I hope my poem encourages and helps people. I hope ya'll understand it, and enjoy it. Thank you for reading it. ^_^ You can do it.
