Life is like a book
As our life continues on:
the plot changes
There's romance and action;
adventure and comedy;
plot twists and shockers;
conversations and drama;
And a cliche moment every now and then

But...life isn't like a book
If it's a bad life, we can't change the beginning,
Only how it ends
We can revise all we want but that doesn't mean
It'll get easier to understand
We can't skip ahead and see what happens next

We're authors of our own stories
Every day we write new pages of our lives
We face obstacles
And criticism
And through it all we still manage to write our legacy
And when it's complete
Only then can we look back and finally understand
That we not only completed our stories on our lives
But also became characters in other's books
And then we understand
Life is like a book
Sorry if this is rough and long. First time posting a poem :)
