Live Your Life

Live Your Life

A Poem by Lunar Lightning

Oh you poor, silly little girl, don't you know

Those tears are so pointless and empty

So what if your parents divorced

Or if you are practically your sister's mother

Who cares if you are the trouble child

And that you are so broken inside

All that matters is that everyone else is happy

Now stop your pathetic crying

Take life like you want to live and keep living

Pretend to smile until it becomes real

Quit your complaining and do your work

Care for your sister and ignore your mother

Visit your father and behave

Do what makes them happy and what you're told

Oh you poor, silly little girl don't you know

If you keep traveling down this road

Telling yourself these saddening things

You'll end your life without that second thought

That isn't what is best

Nor what is right

Time to live your own life

Smile if it is what you feel

Cry if it is what makes you smile later

Do what is best for you
