What Happens, Happens

Written By: D. Collins 12/24/24
What happens to us will happen to us, alone.
Through every day of our lives, until we're gone.
Each path is different for every one of us.
What happens will be fate, or a stroke of luck.
There'll be times when bad fate rears its ugly head.
That's when we learn that we're so ill-prepared.
We go into a panic and see the walls closing in.
Never understanding that it was going to happen.
We can envision, coordinate, and plan to a tee.
But life steps in to reveal what is reality.
It has detours, hills, and plenty of pit stops.
What happens will happen, whether we want it or not.
