Published poem inspired from the eyes of a beholder

Some say that life’s a bitch
Because they’re too skeptical to admit
That the good things in life don’t come easily
A fact that most know to be reality
Some say the world will never see harmony
That the ups and downs shouldn’t be
But in their hearts they know it’s untrue
That we reap what we sow in all that we do
Some say that life is sheer hell
Those that do don’t live it well
For beauty’s all around us when we open our eyes
For all to see, it remains undisguised
Some say there’s no way they want to go on
Yet know it’s a lie when all’s said and done
Those with undying faith see things another way
And don’t give a damn as to what some may say
