Life


Life isn't like a roller coaster.

sure it may have its ups and downs,

but surely enough, 

it's more or less like a walk on the beach.

A beach with a few shells tossed around,

the ocasional dead fish.

Yeah, you are going to stumble,

trip even.

Trip on things you swore were not there.

Life has its surprises,

but they are never as bad as they seem.

And if you lost all sight of hope,

of the Life Guard,

know they're just helping someone who is drowning.
