Life's Questions and Received Wisdom - a poem
Life's Questions and Received Wisdom
Life knocks me down a lot
Some days I feel completely useless
I question: "Is it worth it?"
Cause honestly, some days, I feel utterly worthless
But, they told me that's life
They told me that life will knock you down a lot
And you will question your life's meaning, purpose, and direction
But, they said I'll find the strength to keep going,
I'll realize how far I have come
So, I take their wisdom and I pull the motivation out of me:
To keep kickin,
To keep going,
To continue living
I'll embrace the unknown;
Even though, I know, I'll sometimes question my life's direction
But despite the questioning
I'll continue to run my race
Taking the wisdom I have received
And the lessons I have learned;
I'll march on with my head held high
Because with patience and perseverance
I know that I'll be alright
