A Lot like Life



Life goes on and stops for none


I look back to see what’s come and gone


I realize it’s all been in vain, do I have a choice.


Do you think I can go back to where it all started?


Do you think I could change a few things here and there and


Make it picture perfect?



Life is what is gone and what will come


All that’s gone can never change


And that which is yet to come you cannot transform.


Mistakes are not what we anticipated


They are just the slips that were already premeditated.


We are at the mercy of time, helpless and so dismayed



Life is a wonderful journey


You find companions all along


Few stay throughout, some come and go


You have such souvenirs called Memories to keep with you


Memories of times that can never be relived


Sweet tear drops that they bring with them


Are worthier than the diamond studded band.



Life gives us a lot.


Lessons that are written in our book of Life


Bitter though at times, for the sweetener at the end.


Our experiences are build on tough grounds of our sour times


Our strengths come from the bonds that we have made so long.


A hundred reasons to shed tears, plus one for that golden smile



Life needs contentment from you, only thing


That makes this journey easier than it is


Contented you can be, if you have no complaints.


A handful we find who have seen happiness so closely.


We can join that clan if only we overcome our gluttonous desires


Life gives us a lot if only we have the eyes to see it!!
