The Book of Life


My life is a book.

Some pages are beautiful,

some are funny,

some I wish

I could tear out.

 

But each page,

weather happy,

dark,

or terrifying,

adds meaning to life.

 

So do not be ashamed,

or regret any page

in your book of life.

 

No matter how 

your book began,

no matter the pages 

thus far,

every book has the opportunity

to become beautiful.

 

Because sometimes,

the best books,

have a rough beginning.

B​ut the ending

is more magical

than you could ever imagine
