My life is Mine 

There have been days when I sit alone and brood
There have been days when I am so very surrounded
That there is no time to blink my eyes.
The world has given me days of joy
The world has given me days of sorrow
But somewhere deep within my heart I know
Life has given me what I yearned for.
For LIFE,
Has given me experience.
I have been lost and sad
Happy and geared up.

I have been loved,
I have been hated .
Life has been a whirlwind
Of sad truths, Happy lies.
Sad lies and happy truths.
But somewhere all have left a mark on my soul.
Yes, some of them are deep,
They pain.
I hardly know whether I shall be able to erase them;
But I ,
Would rather NOT.
Smiling to myself,
Crying to myself.
My heart aches.
As happiness fills it ,
Or sorrow drains it.
But all I do is smile.
My life is not I wished it would be
But I am glad it is perfectly mine
