My Life
My life has taken me through many different turns;
From which each i have slowly learned.
When I was young, I thought I knew all there was to know;
Then my life took yet another turnand I felt I lost control.
As the years went by, the turns got worse, but still I faced them with a smile;
I think because the turns were not easily taken, then to live a straight mile.
My turns in life were not all bad;
Some were happy and others were sad.
I slowly learned that life without it's twist and turns;
Made me ask myself," were there any concerns?"
Wondering if things I thought I knew;
I am now finding out that's just not true.
As time slowly passes, people and places change;
It's kinda nice, not to have the same ole' view, alittle life rearranged.
Minus a boyfriend here, a child there, a child here, then a husband there and another child
would have never taken affect;
The sudden changes in my life made me curious for what was coming next.
As the turns went on, each with a lesson to learn, my knowledge grew;
I realized there was alot more to life, then what I thought I knew.
