Life Poem by Sophie Bennett

Life.
Sometimes it's hard.
When you don't know how to live.
When the whole day is numb and wasted with empty emotions.
Sometimes the days don't even feel real like we are all in this misty confusing dream.
Days.
Pass by without a care in the world.
Without the knowledge that they are skipping by like a heartbeat.
Life takes us by in a blink of an eye.
Wondering if I misses out on a day, a week or even a month.
Did I forget others around me? Or did they forget me?
Life takes us to places. Sometimes dark. Dark places.
But the experiences we face will always teach us.
Life is hard.
We all knew that.
But life is what we make it.
It's about the people we meet. The falling in love. The trying something new. The making a difference in the world. It's the feeling of being alive.
Making a difference in this world.
To someone.
To a loved one.
Or just for you.
If your head is down in this world. And all you are surrounded by constant negativity. Leave it. Do what you want. Make yourself happy. look forward. Hope. Never give in or give up. Because one day you will realise that everything you did to get where you are now. Was so worth it in the long run. Things will be okay. And go your way finally. It's you who believes it the most. Make that difference in this world.
Who cares if your judged or criticised or told that your dream is too hard to reach. If you know what you want and how you're going to get it. Let no one stop you from doing you.
You are the leader. You are in control. You do you.
Life is hard.
But it's worth living for...
