living is a part of life
some people claim life is upsetting
uneasy and hard to face reality
With out facing reality
your living in a fantasy world
its time for everyone to wake up
take a dose of reality
and realize that you only have one life to live
Every decesion that you make
will face you in the future
life is what you make it
take the regins and enjoy your ride

The author's comments:
My family inspired me to write this poem. Reason being is because every family has problems and each person takes part of it. Within each person there is something that is holding them back to not understanding how to act right. Everyone thinks life is something that they can live twice. Not noticing the reality of the fact.

You were born an origanal why die a copy?The secret to success is the consistency to pursue.To the world you may be one person,but to one person you may be the world.To receive the right answer,you must ask the right question.Don&#039;t worry be happy! :)
