In this point in life it’s time for change,
sure at first it will feel sort of strange.
Sit through the bad and stay a while,
and you’re sure to find a reason to make you smile.
Try not to dwell too much on the past,
because the present is here and will go by fast.
Or is it the future? It was but not now. Wow.
On this journey called life, hold on for the ride.
The one game you cannot win, although many have tried.
Let go, and live for now you see;
this is your time to simply be free.
A hot summer’s day, cold drink in hand.
Hold on to the youth as long as you can.
There are times where life isn’t so pretty,
who am I kidding, it can be ******.
Take a deep breath and just keep swimming;
this chapter’s closing, it’s the last inning.
One door closes and another appears;
it’ll keep happening all through the years.
Never lose the way that you laugh and smile;
everything gets better, it just takes a while.
What’s to come next simply can’t be known,
that doesn’t change just because you’re grown.
Eighteen, twenty-one, even thirty-four;
surprises are plenty and there will always be more.
At the end of the ride you can look back and say
Hey, I’ve sure come a long way.
Through the tears, the drama and all the ****,
it still gets better...just never forget.
A very wise person once told me this. I've just had to share it.
