Chapters of Life

"Our lives are like a book, Chapters document the trips we took In each phase of our lives, Pen to paper does not lie Some chapters are light and gay, Others are tough as we made our way Others we don’t want to read again, A few have humor built in There are those we want no one to see, Those past lives we can all agree Should be hidden, The memories forbidden So not to disrupt our current chapter, As we pursue what maters Finally there are those chapters yet to write, For life on earth remains finite Save the best for last, Drawing on the chapters past For it is your story to write, And may it’s ending be just right But until then begin a new chapter, To find the happiness you are after"
