Just a Game

Life
 it's just a game we play
those children we once were
 seeking the answers to
what life was all about.

A friendship here and there
 some mere acquaintances
others lifelong endurances
 standing by our side forever
overcoming trying experiences.

Here we are
 a lifetime gone in a moment
when time and age entwine
 who we were and who we are
looking back and looking forward.

Let the yesterday go
 there is no going back
today is all we really have
 and tomorrow can find its own way
in this game we play.
