Life Poem by alicia tschantre

Life

Rating: 4.5


Knew it from the start, nah somethin wasnt right, felt somethin different when i looked into your eyes. things change rearrange, wont ever be the same. nope nothin remains in place. here comes a change in pace. A straight face would be a lie. So i seek alternatives to get by. Takin my best shot, just livin my life. when the walls raise, ya'll shout stop but i dont feel that route. so ima stand up and shout cuz im to damn proud to be the type to back down never runnin from a fight. tell me why my instinct always seems to be right. i try to keep an open mind but its tough at imes. when 9 times outa 10 what i predict is right. take a listen if you will i got a story to tell. everybody i gotta deal with the cards iv been dealt. my lifes hard as hell but i will still prevail...

The whole piece has great fluidity, just rolls right off the tongue. Really paints the picture of a true fighter. Love the part about how it's hard to keep an open mind when your predictions are always right; once your guards are up they're hard to ever put down, and most of the time you're glad you didn't.
