Life No Rewinding Or Fast Forwarding

Tick tock

The clock won't stop

Dreams may fall

But hearts still hop

No rewind for things we've said

For tears we've cried

For roads we've led

No fast forward through the pain

Through storms of loss

Through pouring rain

Life unfolds in rhyme and time

A steady beat

A mountain climb

Some days glow

Some nights drag

Some hopes soar

Some spirits sag

Friends may leave

Love may fade

Plans may break

The way they're made

Yet every scar

Though deep and rough

Proves you've battled

Stood up tough

The sun still rises

Gold and bright

After every

Darkened night

So take each second

Hold it tight

Walk through shadow

Chase the light

For life's a song

That must be heard

Verse by verse

Word by word

No rewinding what is done

No fast forwarding to what's won

Just living

Giving

Learning too

While time keeps writing

The story of you
