DIVERGENT PATHS
One is too hot, the other’s too cold,
life’s just getting started, or you’re already old.
We start at the bottom, crawling toward the top,
one prays for rain, another prays that it stops.
It’s either too wet, or its way too damn dry,
seems it’s always a struggle, just getting by.
Upsides, downsides, diamonds or coal,
it’s not always a failure to fall short of a goal.
The sun rises on one as it sets on another,
followed by the moon with a gaggle of lovers.
Sunsets, moonbeams, storm clouds and rain,
some where, someone is always in pain.
Life can be unkind, that’s understood,
prepare for the bad times, relish the good.
THAT’S JUST THE WAY IT IS
