Life

Life begins at such an early age
When we are young troubles just dont exist
Days and weeks pass by as easy as turning a page
Problems and worries are beyond a hazy mist

Everybody tells us schooldays are the best of times
But nobody really believed it back then
Early years are for making friends and playing games
Enjoying life to the full without a care or yen

As we get older there is so much to learn
Somethings come naturally others take a while
But one thing we can be sure to discern
Everything is relative as our knowledge begins to pile

One notion always bothers me even now
Why were our school summer holidays always hot and sunny
Or does Father Time colour our memories
Nowadays summer seems to last barely a month and is wet and windy

The things we do when young are todays memories
First best friend, first love, they are all in there to cherish
They stay in our mind as if acts in a play
Only the bad memories we allow to fade and perish

As the passing years come and go
Things we once enjoyed leave a sour taste
By the same token, what was once disliked is now, so so
Getting older is becoming wiser and enjoying life in less haste

Throughout our lives there are always promises to make
And days when we just dont want to get out of bed
Sometimes things get too much and life is hard to take
If we argue there is always something we wished we hadnt said

Its true what they say about those we hurt
They are never the ones we hate but the ones we love
We know we are doing it but its something we cant avert
Is it any wonder we ask for forgiveness from above

This is a celebration of our existence written with a sigh
For we are on this earth such a short time with so much strife
Certain only when we are born that one day we will die
Its cruel and its not fair, but baby, thats life.
