No one tells you, when you’re born That life will leave you battered, tethered and worn They try to tell you truth By saying be patient and enjoy your youth Have fun while you still can A phrase that as time passes by, you will understand As a child, I was carefree and curious As an adult, everything is so serious As a child the days seemed like they never end As an adult, sometimes I don’t want to get out of bed as the day begins As a child, I was open minded As an adult, sometimes I need to be reminded Of how loving and nurturing life can be So through the eyes of the young Tone, I try to see There will always be scrapes and bruises In this bumpy road called life I wouldn’t call it loosing There will always be obstacles, no matter which road we’re choosing As long as it isn’t life ending In the problem that comes your way, there’s a new beginning Space for new growth a time for change Sometimes **** happens and there’s no one to blame Living isn’t for the weak, only the strong will survive No matter what you’re going through, on this day we are all blessed to be alive
