Life's journey is like a bowl of cherries.
Because you'll never know exactly,
If the cherry that you have choosen
Will be the one truly ripened and very tasty.
Life's journey gives one many choices to take.
A drive that's given to us at birth,
Deciding on which path we should go on
Can be the one leading to our inner happiness.
Life's journey will be always going forward.
Not every path open one may seek out,
Leads us all which persue and desire
Hoping guidance come from within our hearts
Life's journey will alway continue around you.
Never seemingly to bring us to peace,
Facing that fact constantly inside
Wishing one could rest easy with our life.
Life's journey may never come to wake one.
Yet always today is in front all of us,
Daily one must be searching endlessly
For the truth that comes from inside ourselves.
