Say That Always, Life Is Beautiful! ' Poem by RIC BASTASA

Keep on running keep on running, run away, she keeps on saying that to me.
i am hardheaded, stayed put, stand my ground, and ask, who is she?

no one tells me what to do with my one and only life
i live it the way i want it: not so good perhaps, but it is, and will always be mine alone.

not even the sickness can sway me to grieve
not even your cruelty can make me change my mind
to live, and to live fully and to say that always, life is beautiful! '
