Life Under Construction
Each day a new beginning
A new adventure will unfold
Of Princes, Kings, and dragons
Of silver and of gold
Each day is something wondrous
Strung together, they're a life
Of days and nights and normalcy
And full of love and strife
We build a wall
And tear it down
Things change as days go by
What once was good
No longer so
No matter how we try
There are certain rules to follow
There are choices to be made
But, direction of which road to take
Is seldom ever laid
We live our life as best we can
Doing what we choose to do
We make our minds up for ourselves
At least I do, do you?
There are no set directions
Of which way we should go
We set our sail and follow it
To the unknown we must go
Addictions alter our life's path
They take us from our route
But, overcome them we will try
To give them all the boot
We separate ourselves at times
From those that we love most
Until we become nothing more
Than a spectre or a ghost
Another wall that we have built
A new obstacle in the way
Another brick to tear apart
To get to a new day
It is a big adventure
And it includes no instruction
Just consider each days end result
As a life under construction
