LIFE



`I'm trying to get out of my head and put all this feelings to writing,
But I end up crying, forgetting all the memories I plan on hiding.
It might just help me trace my steps back,
Forgetting all the qualities I lack,
Correcting those who think I bark
Maybe my life won't be full of cracks
My feelings, my emotions they all come together to make me
That’s why I will always want and need
Sometimes I might just be full of greed
Life doesn't have to be always about laws and decrees
Like we are all just a part of an assassin creed
There are guides on how to live or die,
In the end no one wins the prize,
Even if you get to hit the bulls eye.
I really just want to learn how to be kind
And pay more attention to my mind
