I met life the other day
He just got up and walked away
He was full of joy and all things great
But no one could see the evil and hate
He hid behind an evil mask
To do all the bad things swift and fast
At first he was nice
And he gave me advice
He held my hand as he let me see
All the things in the world to be
I saw joy, love, and happiness too
The world was full of many things to do
I met so many people and made great friends
People who would be there till the end
But life got upset and sad
He tore up the world all mad
He took away my smile
He made me feel vile
I told him I'd take whatever he brings
But life did so many horrible things
And when I thought it was all enough
He made me hurt the ones that I loved
He made me feel sad and small
I yelled, screamed, and blamed him for it all
He looked at me and laughed
Then he said this is not a craft
He told me sadness was just a choice
I was the one who took away my joys
Not him or anyone else
I was responsible for myself
But in the end
Life took away a friend
He grabbed my friend and hid away
To leave me by myself like a stray
Ever single day I cried and cried
Until my eyes were dead and dried
I told myself to be happier and to have joy
I told myself that life was just a little boy
But again came life
This time with a knife
He slashed and cut my arm
He did anything he could to cause harm
But I didn't feel anything anymore
Other than my heart that was sore
He couldn't make me happy anymore
My feelings and emotions left without a roar
He couldn't be mad at me anymore
Because my mind left out the door
Then he left. Away and forever.
Me and life? We were once together
We had joy, happiness, and love
But that was just not enough
I met life the other day
He just got up and walked away
