Used To It ☕

5-7-5-7 measured syllables + no rhyme scheme

🖤

I am used to it

I understand the cruel jokes

That life throws at me

I do not need to react

Act unaffected

He does this to everyone

I'm no different

So I ask no privilege

Neither exemptions

If Life puts me in hardships,

That could only mean

I am Life's main character

And he's trying to

To make me even stronger

Too bad for Life though

I am already hardened

But I will still play

In Life's dirty little games

Throw more rocks and pain at me

I won't dodge at all

I will take any attack

All Life can think of

And when Life's tired of teasing,

I'll still be standing

Despite the horrors Life gave

And I'll laugh loudly,

I'll delight in his confusion

My laugh's the final

I let nothing destroy me

I let no waters

None of it inside my ship

I am used to it

And that's not a bitter thing

It must only mean

I can withstand much better

All Life throws at me

I understand Life's cruel jokes

I'm used to it and

Though Life has got no humor,

I find it funny

That it would not bring me down

The way Life used to

I find it funny

That in a way, I'm winning

At Life's fun and games
