I am mean
I am ruthless
I am toothless
but my bites do sting
Yes, I am Life
I can take away your joy for fun
Ruin your day because I am bored
put you in a bad mood and trot
and when you ask “why me ?”
I smile and say
“Because I Can”
You love me and hate me at the same time
At times You wish you could leave me but your only option is suicide
You ever wondered if your death affects me ?
While thinking, did you ever wonder if I actually exist.
It might seem like I am toying with your thoughts
Thats only possible because I can
Under the worst weather I can make you happy
Behind the scenes I can make people proud of you
when you’re lonely I can accompany you
when you’re Ill I can treat you
we would run short on ink listing things I can do for you
I might be mean but I am also munificent
I might be ruthless but I am also nonviolent
I might be toothless but I am not blunt
Yes, my bite might sting, but my smile does more miracles than magic
because I can
because I am Life!
