Sitting here life goes on nothing but the light shinning in my left eye . I try to look at the bright side tugging is a diff cult thing to overcome as pain and everything goes crazy in your mind bothering you and people letting you down and you taking a stand to stand up for what is right . I wonder sometimes what would it take to be in good hands of an achieving life, struggle is trying to prepare for life at the same time keeping up with what goes on in life , is like trying to teach a baby how to ride a bike it takes time to be on top and if you fall you can be down in seconds before the minute hand hits the main dot .

Again, really interesting. I liked the ending; the wording was really good. It seemed rushed, but I think that works for your advantage since you are saying life keeps going on. One thing sticks out: why only the left eye? It seems like too much detail.

&quot;I would rather hated million times for what i did then loved a million times for what i didn&#039;t do.&quot; - Daniel Moto<br /> &quot; I&#039;ve sought out to be the best i could posibly be but when i hit a roadblock in life what did i do, i had two choices either stay at the roadblock or i take this roadblock and make of it and go around it and achieve my goal. So, what will it be?&quot;- Daniel Mathia <br /> <br /> &quot;People take love like its a four letter word or just a phrase that you tell people or your friends all the time. But in reality love is much bigger than a merely phrase or 4 letter word. Instead love is a genuine promise or covenant to that special person.&quot;-Daniel Mathia <br /> <br /> &ldquo;Why change yourself when you were made perfect and wonderfully by the creator of everything?&rdquo; &ndash; Daniel Mathia <br /> <br /> &ldquo;If live is not hurtin then were really not living in.&rdquo; &ndash; B.

I really liked this poem. The emotion and message we're really good. I liked the phrase about the minute hand the ending stanzas we're really good. Great job!!! Suggestion is maybe you have a few misspelled words. Other than that good job
