Life
Bright eyed and bushy-tailed, I came into this world.
My life went so fast it whirled.
Screaming, moving, and crying along.
Going to fast it seems the time is gone.
A lost childhood not to be recalled,
or one might find the saddest songs.
A loss of independence did good for me,
truely learning of both kindness and greed.
I learned and matured, slowly caught up.
Always trying to sing a new song.
Healing came with all due time,
by listening to lyrics that would bring my mind to rewind.
Struggling with the flooding in memories.
Losing more years to the same problems as before.
A year of distractions and distrust.
Hopefully I'll learn to sing a more happy song.
