The Journey of Life

Born young and fragile - so easy to break;

and as time passes, the inner beast we awake

With each passing second, each falling leaf

A new soul is born, a new promise to keep.

 

With each road discovered, each path uncovered

The twists and turns create a life.

One to treasure, one to remember,

A home built from tire and strife

 

And like petals gently falling off a rose,

We let go of life, and our eyes we close

Falling on Earth’s tender embrace,

And the first sip of freedom we taste.
