Up and Down

UP AND DOWN
So here I am at a crossroads in my life, 
not knowing where to go or what to do.
I don’t know where my love life lies, 
who will I meet and settle down with?
I ask questions and I can’t get answers 
which is ever so sad. I am going to college, 
will I like it, but how will I get money? 
It is a hard life and it will soon get better 
but when is soon? I take the ups and downs 
but now I’m pretty low now in my life, 
I take it day by day, the speed of life 
hoping for a break soon.
