Darkened Life Poem by Aurea Armbruster

My life has been darkened
By the news that has come
My heart is stopping
Because of the tragedies

If I mess up in life
I should have another chance
But I am reprimanded
At my mistake

Life should be like music
It easily flows
But my life is a bunch of notes
That make terrible noises together

I thought life was supposed to be fun
But now I see very differently
Life is all about your mistakes
And not your successes

This world is upside down
We should look on the bright side
But all that we see now
Is our dark past that haunts us
