Hurt Makes Life Right <br />Before it makes life right good <br />Why can't we skip the riff <br />And just live like we should. <br /> <br />We get all kinds of advice <br />To do the correct thing <br />But why it has to hurt first <br />Like an unsociable bee sting. <br /> <br />Parents give instructions <br />On what is sincerely good for you <br />But it just feel so good <br />When you do what you should'nt do. <br /> <br />Castor Oil was an example <br />It does the body good <br />But it taste so awfully bad <br />Before you feel like you should. <br /> <br />I say lets wise up <br />And skip the heartache and pain <br />Let's boycott the ways of life <br />Just get the good and skip the rain. <br /> <br />Lets hit Life where it hurts <br />Since Hurt Makes Life Right <br />Lets do the exceptionally best we can <br />Without the fuss and fight.<br /><br />Cecelia Weir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hurt-makes-life-right/
