Dreams break <br />Houses shake <br />Your heart is shattered <br />You got to live your life <br />Even if you know it's tattered <br /> <br />Life is not cake <br />Troubles in your wake <br />Your hopes lie cut up <br />The voices in your head don't listen to you <br />Even if you say shut up <br /> <br />You concentrate <br />Differentiate <br />But the troubles will be mixed up <br />In your somehow good life <br />Things are never gonna be fixed up <br /> <br />Your emotions need an outlet <br />But you find only an inlet <br />Of all disappointments, hopes, sorrows and joy <br />Cluttering your brain <br />But it's all a great big lie <br /> <br />Tattered life <br />Full of strife <br />Eating you to the marrow <br />Wish you could break everything <br />And fly away like a sparrow <br /> <br />Life is not a bunch of roses <br />Even if you have a few supporting crutches <br />Is it fair <br />To be robbed of <br />An only love's fair share?<br /><br />Isabella Francis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/life-in-a-lie/
