Complications and Changes

By Cope

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You are born, And then you die. If life were only so simple. Complications and changes, Cause us all great pain, And, in some cases, Great pleasure. Changes and complications, These, we all must go through. For, it is them who make us who we are. They decide what our morals are. They are the stories we tell. They are the “good ol’ days”, And the “Once upon a time”. They are the hard times, You are born, And then you die. If life were only so simple. Complications and changes, Cause us all great pain, And, in some cases, Great pleasure. Changes and complications, These, we all must go through. For, it is them who make us who we are. They decide what our morals are. They are the stories we tell. They are the “good ol’ days”, And the “Once upon a time”. They are the hard times, And they are the harder times. Whether good or bad, Complications and changes, Simply defined, As nothing more than life. Written January 22nd, 2002 © on Jan 22 2002 05:03 AM PST    10 • 0 • 9
