Life Cycles
Life is quite an amazing phenomenon
Mother nature selling out frail creatures
To natural selection all the while
Father time can be seen winding up his clocks just waiting to see whom comes out on top
The apples fall close to the tree
As the peaches roll down the hill
And the cherries and strawberries grow fresh;just right for easy-pickin
Life is an shocking phenomenon
The sun tires out and realizes his shift is up so he punches out
And the stars and the moon
Both rush to get to work on time
They're very old friends
They enjoy this kind of competition
Kind of makes them happy
The apples fall close to the tree
As the peaches roll down the hill
And the cherries and strawberries grow fresh;just right for easy-pickin
Life is an awesome phenomenon
Finding love in overwhelming times
Where the heart reaches out for help
Even when the mind says "No, Don't"
In the time when you lie with the one you love
As you take turns lying on each other's chest throughout the night to fully understand what it means to have a heart to heart moment
The soul gets it, that nothing else matters
A moment everlasting in dreams,hopes, and prayers but torn apart by reality
Don't we deserve to be happy?
The apples fall close to the tree
As the peaches roll down the hill
And the cherries and strawberries grow fresh;just right for easy-pickin
Life is an illogical phenomenon
where the most enervating decision
Is to choose the brain over the heart or vice versa
And then always wondering how it would have been the other way around
The logical brain vs the illogical heart
A never ending confrontation
In place awaiting their own happiness
The apples fall close to the tree
As the peaches roll down the hill
And the cherries and strawberries grow fresh;just right for easy-pickin
