LIFE

I never really understood, I really never cared.
They never even told me, all those secrets that they shared.
But then I never really listened, to what they had to say.
So I guess they tried to tell me, in their own old-fashioned way.
I was always in my own world, I was the different one.
Always a step ahead or behind, like the dust before the dawn.
It doesn't even matter, what's done is over now.
Things are turning back to how they once were, somehow.
Life goes on, though things have changed, and oh yeah, I'll get by.
But thinking back to younger years, it still can make me cry.
And when I'm feeling sorry for myself, or when I'm all alone.
I think of all the good things I've got, and smile instead of moan.
For I can't change the past, I can only hope for things to come.
It can only get better, this I know, 'cause experience is what you learn from.

LIFE IS. . .

Life is . . . ups, downs, circles, and spins.
No one wants to play, 'cause no one ever wins.
Leslie Sue Ashley It's mixed up, all confused.
I want off, 'cause I hate to lose.
