Its Not Easy Its Just Life

“Its Not Easy Its Just Life”

Life is that of a Game
Game of poker, with deceiving lies
Game of chess, with unseen moves
Game of slap jacks, with slaps in the face 
Game of baseball, with more strikes then balls
Game of football, with personal fowls 
Game of dodgeball, with hits to the gut
Game of red rover, with a fall to the ground

Life is that of a Trail 
Trail of right and wrong, with decisions
Trail of conscious, with unstoppable voices
Trial of angel or devil, with a riding the fence 
Trial of family or friends, with people getting hurt
Trail of identity, with confusion in the midst
Trial of school, with wanting to give up
Trail of perseverance, with no will to stay strong

Life is that of a Temptation
Temptation of worldly choices, with mistakes made
Temptation of opportunity, with questions as “should I?” or “should I not?”
Temptation of pureness, with a desire to fit in
Temptation of disobedience, with trouble attached
Temptation of love, with heartbreak shortly after
Temptation of dreaming, with false hopes
Temptation of the fruit, with a “eat?” or “don’t eat”

Life was not taught to be easy
In fact life itself taught the most important lesson of all....
.....Its Not Easy Its Just Life..
