Search for the light at the end of the tunnel.

And all of a sudden I have this huge urge to cut.

To use the metal blade across my skin.

To see the blood flow.

To feel something.

I just want to cut one last time...

It's 5:44 in the morning

I have been awake for the past hour

Contemplating life and everything in it.

I close my eyes and can't shut my thoughts off.

It's bitterly cold and I'm shivering.

Insomnia takes away the peace I get when I sleep.

-KLR.

I love the smell as the pages turn,

As I devour every word.

I begin to feel like I know the characters personally.

I leave my life and begin a new one in my story.

I find a quiet place at the park under a tree as the sun shines brightly.

I feel saddened and dissapointed as I turn the last page to my book that I have gotten to know so well over the time I have read it.

I can't wait to pick up a new book and have all of those fellings and more all over again.

 If life where easy

Sometimes I wish life was easy.

You wouldn't have to worry about

Money to make the world go around.

You wouldn't have to worry about all of the 

Horrible wars and terrorism that is happening

In this world.

What has the world come to?

Why can't everyone get along

With everyone?

Some people don't have to 

Worry about when their next

Pay check is coming.

To be able to afford food

Or rent. 

Why doe's life have yo be this way?

Why can't everyone be equal?

Oh yeah that's right because life isn't

Supposed to be easy it's supposed to 

Challenge and guide you.

Certain People are placed in your life

At a certain time, the right time to get 

You through the hard times, to encourage

You that you can follow your dreams!

To be a shoulder to cry on when needed

And to push us onto the next stage of life.

Life was never supposed to be easy,

But you get out of life what you put into it.

Sometimes life feels like such a struggle,
