This Is My Life - A Poem

This thing called life

What is life? Is it what you make of it or it is a pre-planned existence where we make some turns here and there. Whatever life is it is sure to be interesting. The key is to keep going and living your life.

Don't try to change things. Stay who you are because remember you're the only you there will ever be.

This is my life
What can I say
It's the life I live
Day after day

Sure there's things
I'd like to change
But even if I can
I don"t know if I should
It may change who
I am meant to be
The parts of my life
I have yet to see

At times I like this life
Others I am not certain
I'm not so sure
These are the times
I need to endure

Need to endure

Happy times I've known
More than a few
But they always seem to end
Before I want them to
But I guess that's life

I guess that's life

Sometimes you win
Sometimes you lose
But there is the freedom
To choose

That's life, That's life
It's still not finished
Not done
I have so much left to do
Before my setting sun

This is my life
What can I say
It’s the life I live
Day after day

This is my life
It's still not done
Not done
I have so much to do
Before my setting sun
