Life
Life, life is complicated
There are many elements to life
There is pain like piercings and birth
There is blooming in life like growing up or flowers blooming
There’s falling in love
Its either you’re hearty or not
And if they're not
They will give you heart break
And assuming you have a fragile heart,
You will blubber crying
Hey, it’s ok if someone doesn’t like you not everyone has great taste
There is aching when you lose a loved one
There’s cruel and unusual punishment
Like being dragged away from your family and thrown into prison, even if it's for nothing
Pulled from your loved ones
See life is filled with lumps and bumps like
Shootings,
Pollution,
Attacks,
Revolution
The world is a trap itself
The rules suck
The President's isn’t all good
And there’s too much of poverty in this world
It’s like one of the only things in the world we can’t fix
And the gloomy and sour smell of poor people’s clothes
The strong smell of Drugs
The putrid smell of smoke from cigarettes
There are dirty and filthy objects like
Racism,
Hate,
Social class,
Sexism,
There are ugly things like
Ugly things like purchasing a gun
Ugly things like waiting to pull the trigger
Dark wars
Deportation
Refugee crises
Life came unfair and always will be unfair
Nature during spring is one of the most beautiful entities
When flowers blossom at the Botanical Garden
The Botanical Gardens’ creamy and tart which calms me
Because in life all people do is kill people
Life is like a water balloon waiting to burst
Life is also a bomb waiting to explode
And at one point death
See life is crazy
The world is crazy
This is life

I wrote this piece in English class during our poetry unit. This poem just came to me all of a sudden like why not write something original, something people talk about but don't really pay attention to. SO this poem is about life.
