everyone is born
everyone dies
everyone is kind
everyone tells lies
everyone is sweet and warm
but on the other side
the road is bumpy and rocky
it’s an uncomfortable ride
we all want to be happy
and yet sometimes we are sad
we all want to be positive
and yet we still get mad
life or death, dead or alive
asleep or wide awake
you know what I think?
here’s what I think
I think life is like a cake
it’s sweet and warm
and always leaves you with
a tasty, sugary breath
but too much is horrible
and makes you sick
and you transition from life to death

Excellent poem. Although a little gloomy. Good work.
