Have you ever felt like you were doing everything you can just to survive in this crazy world but still your efforts were not enough? People around were expecting you to do the things that were close to impossible? I experienced that kind of feeling when I was in college.. And I would like to share with you guys the poem I wrote years ago... Enjoy reading and let me know your thoughts.... Life Life forbids me to live It's reason I was not ready It made me toil and fight my way So that I would live today. Today has come and yet I find that still I cannot live For life demands so many things And all the things I cannot give So even now my fight is on To live my life the way life would And though I am unsure, I still live up to expectations If NOW has come at last Then tomorrow I can live But if tomorrow comes too late Life then will I hate.
