**debris

As we grow older we understand That some things we wanted weren’t part of God’s plan A moment in time we’d thought would last forever Is over, but to be forgotten, never Time proves over and over to remain true It allows us to see what we once never knew How people, places, and circumstances have all changed And what was once perfection, has now been deranged No doubt there will be struggles, even worse than we’ve faced before Yet through these struggles we learn what perseverance is for The goals and game plan we once so tightly embraced Has soon with society and greed been replaced From this we learn we can become accountable for only ourselves Forced to answer to the blame we once placed upon shelves We realize to be the change in the world we wish to see We must rid ourselves of the world’s harmful flying debris
