I'm living I'm breathing I'm still on my feet I don't get worried or excited Life is all bitter sweet Aint no good luck or bad luck Aint no luck at all I live life waiting... for the other shoe to fall. The Wheel of Life is turning Aint no die to cast You're either on your way up Or you're coming down fast. Security rides on a Unicorn's back I aint never seen neither on either side of the track. You've got to cherish the moment 'cause it aint going to last. The only thing that never changes is that... Changes come fast. Well get ready for the happy if you're walking around sad. If it's all looking good... you'd best prepare for the bad. From the time that you're born until you ride in a hearse... Things are never so bad that they couldn't get worse. Don't look to the stars to decide what to do. Things are as they are and it's all up to you. I'm happy that I've laughed and I praise God I've cried. You don't get a good edge until the metal gets tried. I take it all with a smile and I aint gonna hide. Heaven, Hell or high water... it's for me to decide. If they say Life's a beach You know damn well they lied. You'd better turn in your ticket if you can't take the ride. Because security rides on a Unicorn's back. I aint never see neither on either side of the track. You gotta cherish the moment 'cause it aint gonna last. The only thing that never changes is that changes come fast. Be it daughter or son husband or wife... We're all sitting on the see-saw in the playgrond of Life. |

I too was carried away with the rhythm and how right you are - change certainly comes fast. It's probably been making its way slowly but we're too dense to know. Enjoyed your poem! |
