Land of sugar and spice,
pleasure melts in the rain,
not everything is so nice,
often we’re left with pain.
Head spinning, a misty glow,
knowing wrong from right,
easier to go with the flow,
eternal peace fades from sight.
Our society that never forgets,
one’s labeled by who they are,
sadly living with all the regrets,
whether we stay home or go afar.
We can not dwell upon the past,
for with each day must start anew,
thoughts are the only thing that last,
in a land where skies are velvet blue.
Forgive yourself for what you’ve done,
as you strive each day to do your best,
finding inner peace you will have won,
for living life is really the ultimate test.
