If love was all we had
would you love and never cry?
If you could have saved someones life would you have tried?
If you could love with all your might would you give it worldwide?
If peace on earth is possible
would you help provide?
If you could fly above the world
would you close your eyes?
If you love but nevr get love back
would you run and hide?
If everyone was drinking
would you go for the ride?
If any of these ifs or woulds apply to you
Listen to what i say,love the life you live because it could get pulled out from under you,
never run or hide from your past because it'll always be right behind you ,
if others need help, help them help yourself
dont listen or follow the crowd because then theres no seperation between them and yourself
and most of all you always need to know that no matter where you are you'll always be loved by the liveing,
or from someone up above

The author's comments:
I wrote this piece to all the people that are struggleing through school
and i dont mean acedemicly
the loveing part
the socialy included part
the do i look to fat
or to skinny
or am i to ugly to be loved
or im to mean to be liked
i have felt all these and more and i learned that no matter where i go love will always follow not far behind
and i want everyone else to learn this to
