Addictedtoclassic Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Another tick from my words on life... Life is a joke that just hasn?t stopped laughing You cry when you?re born and laugh when you die Isn?t it funny that you never got to do the many things that you always wanted You never got to be the person you wanted to be You never go to have the things you wanted to have Sometimes we feel alone when we?re in a crowded room Then one day you wake up and think about how life could have been How life should have been How life would have been Had you just made the right decisions and things would have been so different You return to places of forgotten memories or forgotten people Or memories that you wish you could forget Memories that you wish would stay locked away in the back of your mind The land of ghosts that haunt you every time you return You walk down paths and the ghosts return Haunting your spirit as they had done so long ago Drawing you back to places you do not want to be Sometimes life can be a personal hell as you struggle to find your stairway to heaven No one can point you in the right direction You have to choose that road yourself You try to laugh at the people around you Knowing that they too are trapped in their own consequences Consequences, unavoidable no matter what you do You make every decision with some sort of recourse But you never know what it will be until it happens Then you look back and want to change your mind But you can?t, you can never change your mind For changing your mind is really just making a new decision with new consequences Will it be good or bad Will you hurt someone along the way We all hurt someone along the way It is the only way to achieve peace with ourselves But it?s the level of hurt that makes that achievement harder Because you then have to live the rest of your life knowing you hurt someone else If we cannot come to terms with these types of consequences then how will we ever come to terms with ourselves You cannot love another unless you love yourself You cannot live with another unless you can live with yourself You cannot be with another unless you can be yourself It all comes down to ourselves You are the only one that can make up your own mind You are the good, you are the bad, you are everything in-between But until you can figure that out, you?re just another lost soul trying to make its way through an empty life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
