You start out young and strong,
just like you really belong,
then all of a sudden,
you're fighting to survive,
old and broken down,
with your behind being
buried into the ground.

Love captivates the young soul,
only to loosen its hold.
Oh what a powerful flame,
then you're losing the game.
What was a fire,
your life desire,
the wick burns out,
life then takes a frustrating route.

Everything delicious and good,
ends up being bad food.
One day you'er slim and trim,
the next day you're bursting over the brim.
You try to stop pigging out,
but there's a fast food joint on every route.
Get past the joints,
then the tv still anoints.
"The big mack attack,"
then you're traveling right back.

Eat, drink and be merry,
lifes a cherry,
Love life and marry.
Be strong and positive,
instead of weak and negative.

A dog,
a house,
a husband
or wife.
Then comes the
the misery and strife,
or the end of your life.

Gone with the wind,
never to return again.

What a magic trick!

Life.
