Your Own Path

Life is short
that's what they say,
so make the best of it
from day to day...

The burden is heavy
and the road often long,
but never give up
because you think it's wrong...

Walk the path that you choose
for you're the one that goes,
down the rocky trail of life -
past the pleasures and the woes...

Sometimes you win
and other times you lose,
but its always better to wander
down the path that you choose...

So live each day to the fullest,
and never give up the fight;
for what seemed wrong today,
may tomorrow be just right.
