They say lifes short But this is a lie It's the longest thing you'll do Till the day that you die It's all about choices You win some you lose Depends on the pathways The routes that you choose This poems not to scare you Or keep you in line It's to encourage enjoyment Of all of your time I hate poems that rhyme Like old mother goose Or wrap up to cleanly Like olde hangmans noose So from this here poem Take what you will Or continue your own path Which can be such a thrill And with this last thought I bid thee good bye They say life is short But this is a lie
