Dear life

Dear Life,
Please be fair to me.
I have toiled the bittersweet part of you.
A hundred and ninety score weeks have I walked you, please, grant me progress.

From cradle,
your harshness makes me burst eardrums;
Earthlings wouldn't have appreciated my coming
Without shattering their eardrums. Though,
You sealed my tongue until 3 decade months.
You dealt with me so much so that nothing but tears
Can get me all I want.


As an adolescent,
my tears became obnoxious
Earthlings panic no more when I tear down my voice box
They exchange my plead with increased hardship
Here I was confused about how to tell of my suffering
Mr Therapy seems to be the way.
But Mama and papa only want to heed to their purse.
Many a time I succumbed to crumbs.


Yet at last, youth came,
Ah! My first stance was to backdate.
But You reluctantly stood your ground and pressed on me.
You gave me the best of you.
Is this not enough? have you become so cruel that small pleasure is so a hard gift to unleash?

At the Peak,
You brought me company who innocently entered the race
cute sons and other daughters
Mama is frail and Agile.

Dear life,
If you love my tears so much,
Do hold back for now, until my seedlings are free to explore You themselves.
I know each lesson taught by you is what makes living favourable.
I know I have been a bad student.
Let me live a thousand days more and I will help them to stand tall against our common enemy.
