What Is Life? Poem by Jodie Louise Pollock

What is life?
Is it having kids and becoming a wife,
Or is it something else,
Something you can only figure out yourself,
Something thats unique just for you,
Something where you can do whatever you want to,
It can either be good or bad,
It can either make you happy, scared or sad,
You could just leave everything the same,
To make sure you suffer no more pain,
But you need variety in life,
Even if it causes you trouble and strife,
But no matter what,
The choices you make are your fault,
You cant blame anyone but you,
They never told you what to do,
They do however care,
And they will always be there,
Even if they dont say it alot,
You know your all theyve got,
You know they love you,
And you know you love them to,
No matter what the upset,
Whether it be death, divorce or debt,
Theyll always be there,
And theyll always care,
So thats what lifes about,
And with that i have no doubt,
As long as you have friends and love,
You will always be protected by them and the one above :)
