Children are like canvases,

Blank in their creation,

Clean, new, and untarnished

But each and every stroke painted on,

An array of different colors,

Different patterns,

Different textures,

Has to be carefully measured,

And planned out.

For it can never be erased,

Nor covered up.

Are you ready?

You have a long trip to sit through.

Do you have everything?

Your ride will be here to get you.

I don’t know how long it will take,

Or what roads you will travel.

You may have to undertake,

Roads that are smooth, or made of gravel.

All I know is you will get there,

Sooner or later my friend.

For life is a long road,

That has an end.

think of a road.
is it smooth?
or is it rough?
is it light?
or is it dark?
no matter what
the road looks like,
you keep going, even
if your car breaks
down, you get help
to fix it, you could
be alone or with
someone you love,
but you always
keep going to
get to your
destination, and
you might stop once
in awhile to look
back at what you've
been through.
sometimes there's
bad weather, but
it doesn't last long,
all you do is think
of the road a head of you.

Imagine what your scared of,
an bring it to life.
You won't know what your made of,
until your stab it with a knife.
Once again your back to normal,
but sooner or later,
something new will appear,
Again and again,
until you accept what's there.

It comes in different lengths,colors,

and purposes.

Some pages inspire us

and make us feel intense joy.

While others make us want to hide under our covers.

It contains the brightest moments of our lives

As well as are darkest moments of our lives.

We can never know what the ending will be

till the final chapter.

Life is like an effect

One move move can change your future

But sometimes doing the wrong thing

Is the right choice,

But life isn’t always fair

Some have choices others will never have,

Either way life is just choices,

This is the butterfly effect

A person’s life is like a cloud of rain

It tries to hold in all the pain

One more drop and it let’s go

Then it can not hold back the flow

A person’s life is like a stormy night

Who always seems to be caught in a fight

The thunder and lightning is the sound of falling

But getting back up is the sound living

-Kimberly

# data[].attributes.body
You can’t know pain until

you see it staring at you.

Pain can be horrible but also make you better.

You cry, but get back up

You fight, but make it better

You make it happen

You can’t climb a tree without working your way up.

Make it seem easier, practice, work harder

Make that tree have a ladder.

Drugs are good,
they'll make you happy
so you did as much as you could
but after the high you'll feel like drowning

Drowning in dept
you'll lose all your money
looking in the mirror you'll see the effect
always sad cause its no longer sunny

getting 50 bucks on your birthday
it's like winning the lottery
you don't know what it is but do it anyway
Until you overdose and end up in a cemetery

Eyes unseal

Sight only Teal

Silk and slow

The waves flow

As you float

Through the hastening stream

you see what is a choice

Left or right

One leads to glorious bays

Other

Horrid falls

You can choose only but once

For as the current of time never reverses

It shall grant no rehearses

It is up to you to swim to your chosen path

To fight for your faith

If you choose not

May you find destiny not

Once you feel the plodding in tide

You have reached your pride

You may rest

as you have reached the bay

Where you may stay

Its a lie.
Even when I'm high.
you can see it in my eyes.
I still want to die.

I'm weak and tired.
I wanna be fired from this world.
I rather live in the underworld.
Where I wont be expired.

Life is a hockey game
Sometimes you get saved by the goalie.
Or sometimes you have to step up and go off on that breakaway
Sometimes you hit the crossbar.
Do you stop shooting?
No you take those shots
Go on break ways
Don't let someone save you
Go off life sometimes hits the crossbar
But in the end it will be a goal.

life is food.
it could be sweet,
like candy, but
also sour like
lemons, it could
be smooth like an
apple, but rough
like the outside
of a pineapple.

Life is a fight

you get hit but you can’t quit

take the pain and turn it back around

punch it in its heinous face

and never back down

Take it by the throat

and make it bow down

Orange and Yellow

Joyful and Happy

Dark and blues

Sad and Doleful

Black and Grey

Nothing and Everything

Life’s the weather

Sometimes like the sun

Sometimes like the rain

Sometimes like a storm

You can never know

So live day by day

By colour

Life Is The Sky

It can dark and lonely

Or cloudy and confusing

It can be rainy filled with dread

But,there is always a sunny day ahead

You just have to live through

those miserable days

To get to the beautiful days to come.

Life is a board game
So even if you're winning or losing
It will all sometimes get confusing.

Don't lose your way
there is always a game to play.
There's always a decision to make
just make sure you're not fake.

We do laps of the same day over and over.

Life has bumpy twists and tight corners.

We follow laws and orders from our government,with roads guiding us,from start to finish.

When you've reached the end,

you wished you didn't finish

For life is a Race Track.

Life is  a bicycle
Except you don't get to choose the brand
or the path
but the destination is the same to all
you fall
you cry
you die

Life is like a waterfall

Being so free yet feeling so small

With all that water, you might need to pee

But be careful because you could end up in the downfall

Life is a football game.

Putting your blood sweat and tears Into the game.

Going all out.

Until the final whistle blows.

Fighting every play.

Until the final whistle blows.

But life does not have a set of downs.

If you don't make it and if you fall and give up, you lose.

You don't have four downs each day

But never give up

You can win in life in the 1st quarter

Or you can win in the last 20 seconds in the fourth quarter

Never give up

Until the final whistle blows

Life is a puzzle

As each piece comes together

Life slowly becomes complete

Life is a puzzle

It’s a mess

Until you put it together

Life is a puzzle

You will struggle to find the pieces

But once you do it all comes together

Life is a puzzle

The pieces maybe deformed

But they all have their place

Life is a Hill
It goes up, it’s a thrill.
It goes down, it’s a shock.
It's like a faceplant in rocks.

Life isn't easy.
You wont always be qualified.
It hurts, it stays like graffiti.
Sometimes leads to suicide.

Life is a headache,
It hurts until the end,
If you’re here long enough
Your vision will bend

Life is like school,
Years in this hell you spend,
Until it's over you go to college,
Then realize it doesn't end

Life hits you hard,
Like a good, hard smack
Kind of like a good friend
Who stabs you behind your back

The room is bright and loud

People chatting knowing they’re right

She points at me her eyes waiting

My stomach sinks

My heart starts racing

Tears well in my eyes as I try to speak

Not able to make a sound not a single peep

Eventually  she turns and moves on

It’s over now

The anxiety’s gone.

Life is like a sky,
Sometimes there's rain.
Sometimes there's sunshine.
You never know which it's going to be.
But you always hope it's happy
You always hope it's bright
But most of the time,
It's like dark chyme's
Life is like a dark sky.

Have you ever walked in a blizzard

You slip,

You fall,

You get back up

And fall again

At first you’re cold

Then you forget it,

And then you push forward,

Walking against the blizzard

Life is a full bottle of Vodka
You go through it really fast
Take it for granted
Forget the pain of your past
Let it burn through your throat
And rock you like a boat
Then you dip
He dips

You see, I’ve never had a dream

Nothing that made my blood boil with passion,

that made my heart pump madly with adrenaline running through my veins

No, I was quite numb

I always felt as though everything around me was so bright but I just couldn’t see the colours

Like I was being robbed of something amazing

A part of me seemed to be missing

and with my whole body and soul I’ve been searching for it

But I still can’t find it

I realize I’m speaking in the past tense

but that’s because if it was in the present,

it wouldn’t be true.

Something changed one day.

Something ignited a spark,

a very small one but to me,

it’s like my whole world had burst into flames and it burned bright.

And although the smoke suffocated me,

when it cleared I felt like I was breathing for the first time all over again

The feeling was so familiar,

seeing the light and feeling the warmth

Perhaps I hadn’t always been numb and I just can’t remember

because the numbness is like a wall of fog that’s so thick you can cut it with a knife

Life is like a novel,

Full of stories, possibilities and past,

Font changing from time to time to enhance and contrast.

Never knowing what will happen next,

These pages of truth and lies complete the text.

The meaning of it all we shall find out,

But the journey throughout causes much doubt.

Life is a novel, full of pages to turn

The message inside, is surely one to learn.

Life is a two faced monster

It makes you trip and fall

Fills you with despair

Eats up your mind

Inserts itself into your mind

Steals your soul

Not to worry

Of course,

The freedom of life will come

Even if you cry,

Amazing people from above,

Shall free your tainted heart

Your spirit will be freed

Nature

Life is like an ocean

Sometimes so calm and peaceful

Sometimes so restless and wreckful

Yet even after a storm, it will always be so beautiful.

Life is like a hike up a mountain

Reaching the top to watch the sunset

You push through the pain

No matter how rocky the road gets
