My life is happiness, mirth shared with a family

My life is sadness, leaving behind friends I wanted to keep

My life is healing, more prepared every day

My life is festering, animosity hidden underneath

My life is laughter, shared with beloved friends

My life is tragedy, memories slipping away

My life is joy, surrounded by support and love

My life is sorrow, unable to take it

My life is fulfillment, what I ask for handed to me

My life is longing, what I truly want nowhere to be found

My life is a blur, rushing from one spot to another

My life is a crawl, hours spent lying awake

My life is bliss, feeling the warm sun across my body

My life is agony, locked down by my own perception

My life is brightness, sight reaching farther than the mind can keep up with

My life is darkness, drowning in an ocean of night.

My life is excitement, learning to fight for a sense of adventure

My life is terror, the use of the knowledge an extreme danger

My life is hope, a future full of prosperity

My life is regret, bearing scars from unstable ground


My past is far gone

Ash left buried in the sand

Now out of my sight


The future is hidden, out of my sight

Uncertain as the waves, Schrödinger's pet project

Dim as a cave, prospects below the ground

For now, it is unimportant, a journey for another day

My life is now, living in the present
