Scary World By Keely McAllan


"It's pretty scary to know how quickly time flies" - James Wan


I wrote this poem whilst having a lovely 'writing' date with a dear friend whom I would like to thank for the inspiration! (Thank you Emily!
It's a poem about our love and hate relationship with the world and I hope you enjoy the read!


                                      Scary World                                                                                            

The world is a scary place,
It will knock you, block you – you’ll give up the chase.

Every let down, every disappointment,
You see life as nothing but a pesky appointment.

When is enough, enough?
“I’m fine, I’m fine” – until you call your own bluff.

Are you tired of all the “why me’s”?
Exhausted, you fall to your knees.

What if I told you the world is a scary place,
But also a world blooming with grace.

Every time you look for the bad,
You forget and lose the greatness you had.

The universe has its reasons,
Just as the earth has its seasons.
Winter must storm so summer can form.

Stop looking for what’s wrong,
Be thankful, be strong.

The world will be scary and sometimes confusing,

But don’t be afraid, for life is not done choosing. 




Once again thank you for taking the time to have a read!
