LIFE IS HARD
by Jessica Finley
Age 15


Life is harder than it ever was before.
It's something that we just can't ignore.
People struggle every day,
it's getting hard to live this way.


Pressured to steal.
Can't afford a meal.
This is not a joke,
we are going broke.


It's happening now.
We can not allow.
Bills are overdue,
there must be something we can do.
