Where-as smiles can turn to tears;
And laughter might not be found.
If all hope turns to fears;
Then dark skies will abound.
By chance a love might turn to hate;
With saddened memories that time can't chase.
Then be the fool has sealed his fate;
For certain things that he can't erase.
Where-as if you lose, but can try again;
And triumph can take its' place.
If all is lost, still you try to win;
Then tales be told, if you're but in the race.
By chance you're given a second look;
With pictures from through-out the ages.
'Cept a fools life will look, like no book;
As it shall be one of empty pages.
"Me"
